History
Milton Florsheim and his father Sigmund started The Florsheim Shoe Company in a small Chicago, Illinois factory all the way back in 1892. Their shoes swiftly became quite popular, which saw them featured in the pages of top magazines such as The Cosmopolitan and The Saturday Evening Post.
They quickly added their company name onto each pull strap as well as on the sole inside of every shoe they created so that consumers knew they were purchasing a genuine Florsheim shoe, one of the earliest examples of branding that was decades ahead of its time.
Over the next 100 or so years, they stayed true to their legacy of quality workmanship with the same classic styling, while gained a reputation for always remaining at the forefront of all the latest trends. From their selection of materials to stitching quality, Florsheim ensures even the smallest details are perfect because they care about your shoes just as much as you.
Florsheim was one of the principal boot manufacturers for the American soldiers who fought in both World War I. And then during World War II, half of all the shoes created by Florsheim were supplied to US troops.
In an appeal to the more style-conscious consumer, Florsheim created a new trend in 1926 when their creation of the first square-toed shoe first appeared in magazines. Florsheim went on to revolutionize the footwear industry forever in 1949, when they brought shoes out of storage and put them onto shelves so that their customers could browse. This was so effective that it soon became the norm, and by the time 1966 came around, a pair of Florsheim shoes was sold approximately every 4 seconds.
For their 125th anniversary in 2017, Florsheim created a limited edition collection of five classic silhouettes of vintage shoe styles that celebrated how far the company had come after such humble beginnings.
