100 YEARS. The stories. The people. The pride that comes from the passion for making.
100 YEARS. Made in America.
Made in Port Washington, Wisconsin.
100 YEARS. Generations of craftspeople teaching the next generation their craft.
100 YEARS. Making shoes for your life's work. Our history has always been about the future.
To craft something that lasts. That lives on.
None of us build a legacy by standing still.
You know that. So do we.
100 years is nothing we take for granted.
To value how it's always been done and do it better.
To constantly perfect our craft and the shoes we put our name on.
That's the legacy we choose to carry forward in every shoe we make for you.
With sincere gratitude. We celebrate a century. LEGACY
IS ONLY THE BEGINNING.
Allen Edmonds
PORTRAITS. UNITED IN STYLE AND CULTURE.
KIDD.
PARK AVENUE. ON 100 PEOPLE.
INFINITE POSSIBILITY.
Style is a personal journey. In celebration of our 100th year we commissioned the iconic photographer Billy Kidd to capture 100 people each on their journey, each interpreting our icon with their authentic style. Culture is defined by those who make it. A shoe made in Port Washington, Wisconsin, touched by 48 pairs of hands. Wearing the shoe that started it all, a classic American oxford, the Park Avenue.

A classic stands up to time. It doesn't set out to be one, it becomes one. It isn't just one thing, it’s many. Just like the people who make it. It’s about life’s work. You feel it. You live in it. That's how it’s made. Pair by pair. Tested on your time.

DEFINING AN ICON.
BY STYLIST IN RESIDENCE, MATTHEW MARDEN.
Stylist - @Matthew_Marden
THE AMERICAN OXFORD. A
STYLE
MANUAL.
Classic status needs to be achieved. You can't force it. Something becomes an icon only by proving itself over time through form and function. It outlasts the others because it works.
Having earned its place in American style history and found in over two millions closets around the world, our cap-toe Park Avenue oxford is that kind of iconic classic. Now available as a lug-sole style and a sneaker, our stylist-in-residence, Matthew Marden shows you how this staple is the most valuable player in your wardrobe. Go online to view the Park Avenue look book for 14 fresh ways to wear our forever oxford.
