The Story Behind the Shoe:
Henry was a Grandfather and a man who loved nature, read voraciously, and spent quality time with his family providing guidance and support. He helped pioneer the first generation of the family business started in 1946 by manufacturing performance footwear for athletes like NFL Hall of Famer, Johnny Unitas, and Olympic Gold Medalist, Peggy Fleming. Henry was the inspiration behind our first product, which has a classic look that balances style and substance.
