About the brand ❤️
Alfred Sargent is a historic English shoemaker, founded in 1899 in Rushden, Northamptonshire. It specialised in handcrafted Goodyear-welted men’s footwear, producing elegant, durable shoes using traditional methods and high-quality leathers. The company built a reputation for craftsmanship over more than a century. Facing financial difficulties, the business entered voluntary liquidation in January 2021. Although the original company was wound up, its legacy continues to resonate among shoe enthusiasts.
