WS Foster & Son Bespoke Boot and Shoe makers in London, a company with a long and interesting shoe & boot history making.
When looking at the bespoke pieces of WS Forster & Son, one can see the tracks of history as well as the fingerprints of The Honourable Mr. Terry Moore, the WS Foster house last maker.
Odd that when googling the WS Foster shoes, not so many hits, compared to other English brands.
WS Foster deserves more than that. Here I give you WS Forster creations, both bespoke and Ready To Wear products.
The below pictures are samples of WS Forster's Ready To Wear (RTW) shoes. Reasonably priced too.
The RTW shoes are either on the Crockett & Jones, 337 Last or Edward Green, 888 Last and other EG lasts. Forster's RTW shoes are very elegantly made, and do have the fingerprints of Mr. Moore.
The RTW collection is worth a starting point for gents building a good and elegant shoe collection, when bespoke is just a dream.

I strongly advice, gents who are building a good shoe wardrobe, which is good looking, elegant & stylish to consider the WS Foster RTW collection as an option.
I own a few of these creations and I am more than happy with the shoes.
The WS Forster & Son team is very helpful and are very knowledgable about their products.
