The Mathews have been making beautiful hand-crafted shoes since the 1920's. Fashioned from the finest leathers & free from synthetic materials and toxic glues typical in the shoe industry, our shoes are fully leather lined and hand sewn making them a totally recyclable product that will last for years.

Cordwainer Shoes are distinctively designed on a natural last. A "last" mimics the human foot and results in the finished product conforming to the foot in every way. Our shoes are widely known for their comfort as each pair is custom-built based on carefull measurements of both feet.

TESTIMONIALS
"Hi Molly & Sara, I love, love my new shows! They arrived today and fit like a glove and all the attention to detail in the leather is just beautiful. Thank You for the great work you all do. Cheers. "
Barbara - Atlanta

"Hi. I just wanted to let you know that I received my shoes last Friday (1st pair: Chatelaine) and they are exquisite! I am so pleased and can't wait to order another pair. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!"
Kathy - San Francisco

"They arrived... and they are GORGEOUS!!! I am thrilled... there is nothing like putting on a new pair of Cordwainers. I will treasure them and think of Paul each time I put them on."
Carla - San Francisco

"Though it is late October, I'm wearing my new, wonderfully-comfortable brown and black pairs of Mercury sandals almost everyday, as our extended Indian summer has kept Santa Monica temperatures up in the 80's. So happy to have them."
Maggi - California

"These are the most beautiful shoes I�ve ever seen."
Carly Simon

Dear Molly and Paul,
I am so very (selfishly) happy to find that you are still in business. I have a really old pair of your Grecian sandals that have walked all over the streets of Rome, Florence, and Vienna and many streets in the United States. The soles and heels are in desperate need of attention. Do you still rework your vintage art, or am I just plain out of luck? Looking forward to hearing from you.
Kelsey - San Francisco

Dear Paul, Molly and Sara,
How do I say Thank You.... my fun red shoes arrived and I am in Heaven. They fit perfectly. I'm having so much fun, this is my first pair of red shoes (in my entire 60 years....). I feel happy and very powerful. Just let someone mess with me - I'm wearing red shoes and I'm going to win!

Please build the rest of my order exactly like these shoes.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart. A custom foot is hard to fit, but with your expertise and craftmanship we've found the solution.

Many many thanks,
Sherry - South Carolina

They arrived. They fit perfectly. It's really a nice (and new) experience to have shoes that are comfortable. I went away for the weekend and took them with me to show my friends and at dinner we made a toast to custom made shoes!! I haven't worn them outside yet -- I was going to wear them yesterday, but it was drizzling and I didn't want them to get wet. At some point, I hope to get another pair so I'll be keep[ing] in touch via your web site.
Phyllis - Philadelphia

The silver boots arrived and I tried them today. They are STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL and I am thrilled with them. As always, they appear to be extremely comfortable. They solve a huge problem for me because they can take me almost any place. I can be comfortable and mobile even if going to the opera or symphony or to a party. I hope you took a picture of them, although I also love that they are so unique! The decision to trim with the softer looking gold was a perfect one and really adds to the wonderful apppearance and I suspect to the durability. Thanks you both so much! They are more than worth the wait. I am sure as we get into spring or summer you are likely to hear from me.
Thanks again.
~ Nancy - San Francisco ~

I received my beautiful black sandals, and I thank you for a great job quickly done. I love them.
~ Joyce - Georgia ~

I purchased some custom made sandals several months ago, and got them in June. They're the absolute BEST! My feet finally have a future!! Thanks again for making me a sensational pair of sandals.
~ Debbie - Berkeley, CA ~
