Grenson

How old were you when you started working, let alone take over a company? Probably not as young as William Green who — with the help of his mother — took over the reigns of his father’s shoemaking business in 1839. Moving out of his home in 1866, Green established his company under the name William Green & Son (Grenson, get it?) eventually going on to accomplish firsts like the using the Goodyear welt construction method for men’s shoes.

Grenson waxed calf leathers and Barbour waxed cotton abound atop a commando sole and, naturally, a hand-stained gren welt. And Bob’s your uncle.
