Arena Magazine
Expect a level of luxury and comfort more in keeping with the elegance of the heyday of British shoemaking - the ultimate age of skill and innovation. By using only the best of materials Jeffery-West has developed footwear with traditional characteristics. But each and every style has its own signature 'twist' of originality - hand burnished uppers, pointed lasts, diamond broguing, references to the George Cross, influences form Gothic architecture and its infamous and much copied cleft heel.
Oliver Sweeney launched his own label back in 1990, initially in a link-up with famous London department store: Harrods, he quickly established a reputation as a creator of 'classic-with-a-twist' shoes for the footwear cognoscenti.
Oliver Sweeney shoes combine the creative energy of great British design with the consummate flair of Italian manufacturing prowess. The designer says he has found his spiritual home in Italy. "We use the best shoe factories in Italy", he says. "That means the best factories in the world. The degree of expertise is unrivalled."
Over the years, the designer has developed a growing celebrity following who love wearing his shoes. His celebrity customers span an incredibly mixed range, from Aussie Olympic gold medallist swimmer: Ian Thorpe to soccer star: David Beckham. The extensive list of customers also includes Brad Pitt, Michael Owen, Prince Naseem, Will Smith, Trevor Nelson, Noel Gallagher, Paul Weller, and many more.
A big welcome awaits customers old and new at Beverley's 'Memphis Belle', possibly the smallest independent department store in Britain if not the world.
