- In today's video, I have the rare privilege of unboxing my first pair of bespoke shoes for 2024! These beauties were a surprise sent to me by London bespoke shoemaker Canons, the new firm that took over the assets of famed west end shoemaking firm Foster & Son. Continuing their 180 year legacy of crafting the finest west end bespoke shoes, Canons is pushing new boundaries in the bespoke shoemaking trade.
These shoes were crafted on my Foster & Son last, one of the most comfortable of all my bespoke shoes. They have been an absolute pleasure to wear, a pair that truly epitomizes the best of bespoke: unparalleled comfort, supreme elegance, and exceptional craftsmanship.
Canons returns to Foster's roots by exclusively focusing only on bespoke shoemaking. They continue to travel outside of London on bespoke trunk shows, including to the United States.
📌 Upcoming Canons United States Trunk Show Dates:
📍Washington DC - 20th & 21st February
📍New York - 22nd, 23rd and 24th February
📍Houston - 4th & 5th March
📍Los Angeles - 6th & 7th March
📍San Francisco - 8th & 9th March

This is as close to perfection you can get. What quality craftmanship ❤
I have to say... the finish on these shoes is next level. Incredible work.
Beautiful shoes,thanks ❤️👍🏴
What an absolutely stunning pair of shoes anyone would be proud to have them in their collection 👏🏻
Even better in person.
First glance and you can tell it’s exceptionally well made! The colour seems to be versatile for matching up.
You are not the only one that enjoys the smell of a new pair of shoes! My wife thinks it is odd, but there is nothing like the smell of an exceptional pair of beautifully crafted shoes!!
Wow! Magnificent pair of shoes! 👞 What presentation, too!
Everything about them are prefect!
Put 'em on mate !
Came down here to say the same 😂
stunning perfection!
Beautiful pair Kirby!!
Who doesn’t smell their new shoes?! It’s always a must for me!
I’m a 30 year old male that never wears suits and dress shoes I’m always in my Amiri jeans and my Nike dunks and either a black or white T-shirt and fitted caps for the most part with that said I love all Kirby’s videos he has made me want to get a well fitted suit nice dress shoes and buy and try a nice cigar for the first time I’ve learnt so much from Kirby so I know what a suit should look like and fit my body so I’m not wasting money and start my endeavour “proper” as Kirby always says thanks so much Kirby for all the people like me you have inspired to dress better and to be a true gentleman.
Stunning pair of shoes, Kirby!
Absolutly stunning
What is the starting price to commission a pair of this marvelous piece
Dont ask that question. This company dont even show any prices on their website. I looked it up.
We can be certain that those kind of shoes are to expensive for us, the mortal once.
Wow beautiful shoes
what is the price of this shoes ???
Love the color.
Kirby, have a visit to Central European shoemakers. They're hidden gems.
These gorgeous shoes are exactly my taste. Really unbelievably beautiful shoes. Wear them in good health.
Exceptional aren't they!
magnificient
Are you back over here in England 🏴 again soon Kirby ? .
I think it's worth mentioning that Foster and Son closed the Jermyn Street store but the business is still in operation at a different location in London. I don't know the full story and didn't realise the collection of lasts and samples had been separated from the company. I also must say it's somewhat odd to talk about the "baggage" of being an old company. Since when has this channel seen a long trading history as being in some way negative? Especially when it's about the continuity of quality, craftsmanship and tradition. In fact, by the sound of it, Canons is piggybacking on that long provenance.
I smell my new shoes as well. It's like a new car with leather seats!
They should of kept the name Fosters if possible.
"Promo SM"
What are the chances of me getting your number?
lol
@@mljones99 I don't see anything funny about it.
Mr. Allison, if you have not had your blood pressure checked recently, please do.
Meh.
Thank you, Kirby Allison, for your profession in men's shoes and suits. May the LORD JESUS bring you closer to GOD through the Holy Spirit. And that you except Jesus Christ as your savior. Amen.
Now there can be no doubt whatsoever that this guy and his sycophantic followers are a cult.
Thank you!
Fosters on Jermyn Street…..legends. They have used old Foster samples on their webpage. Just heart stoppingly delicious……Their punched cap oxford last was a shape to die for…..🇬🇧
I miss walking past the old foster and sons store on jermyn street, that was a institution
@@JT-dk3mw The windows were a joy; never changing from when I first saw them in 1972 as a wide eyed 17 year old….
Yes. It's a real shame that Fosters closed during the pandemic. Sad to see a 180 old Heritage Company close. But, thankfully, their legacy is being resurrected by the team at Canons. In many ways, they are taking the company back to their bespoke shoemaking roots by only focusing on that. Canons has the entire archive of lasts and samples.
As a 18 year old girl even I want these 🤣
what about blisters???! is it blisterfree? :D
How much the price?
Just visited their workshop a few days ago. There’s no question they are up to something special there. I visited the main workshops in London and the shoes Canons is making really stand out. Great team and a very nice approach to shoemaking. Congrats on the new pair!
Most shoes that are elegant are uncomfortable because their sole is hard . I like the Rockport shoes because they're really comfortable and the sole of the shoes is soft !!!
shitttt.this got me stoked for mine! got my bespokes coming from Pakistan for my 40th! i find turkey and places like this have much higher quality leathers for much more affordable prices with 0 loss of effort in the shoe crafting its self :)
The presentation is amazing before you even see the shoes 👟👟
I know. Every detail meticulously looked after. This is the hallmark of true craftsmanship.
Thank you!
❤
Beautiful! Very impressive!
I never normally wear oxfords as I almost exclusively wear loafers with suits, but those are really lovely. I might have to get a pair…
London rent is ridiculous? I think you mean bespoke
Too many big word as filler just talk simply.
They avoided the high rents, Kirby knows his shit, kinda.
Wonderful presentation, Kirby. Thank you.
Pleasure is mine!
Looks like yohei fakuda level
That's an exceptional color. What color of Saphir Medaille D'Or would you use, dark brown?
Yes, I'd probably use dark brown.
A lot of men smell their own shoes, whether they are new or not lol.
Fabulous shoes!
Even better on the foot!
@@kirbyallisoncan you do a video of their first shine?
These are sublime.
Ahaha I smell my new dress shoes too!
Really stunning shoes.
I absolutely love them.
...... Are the lasts, made of Beech ?
These are really traditional, a nice Brogue. I find a lot of shoemakers don't provide a substantial enough heel. I wear Tom Ford Gianni last and that model has a substantial heel and sole. I find if you have the opportunity to purchase a TF dress shoe you'll enjoy the design/feel. Not bespoke price, but great style/performance all the same.
What a beautiful surprise.
I was about 12, my dad sat me down and taught me how to shine my school shoes. Cherry blossom black polish..funny the things you remember in life. A year later he taught me how to tie a half Windsor knot. It has to be said Kirby, your tie is always symmetrical and pinched, just how my dad taught me.
Mr. Allison, would you make a video on Tod's gommino driving shoes, while driving and smoking cigars? Thatd be a fun sunday drive/review video
Another former Fosters stalwart is Emiko Matsuda, who started working on her own a few years ago, carrying on the Fosters heritage. She worked with the legendary lastmaker Terry Moore for years and now all set to travel to NYC.♥
Beautiful shoes! Random question - which suit is that you’re wearing?
Brooks Brother tie? Don’t recall Kirby wearing anything outside of his own brand. Looks great
don't wear those kind of shoes, but damn, they're beautiful
Really enjoy your videos. When do your John Lobb St James land? Can't wait to see those
I’m gonna say something that I don’t take lightly. I like those.
They are still in London, just a bit further North near Islington.
Lighting is bad. I cannot see the details clearly.
Those small nuances, bespoke bubble wrap
THOSE ARE SOME BEAUTIFUL SHOES 👞
Why do I like shoes so much😢
God damn those are sharp@
It is beautiful to see how a person amplifies his bespoke shoe collection.
He did'nt try them on :(
Very nice 👌 pair
I went to a nice steak restaurant recently. The two males nearest wore sweatpants, a long sleeve T-shirt and trainers! One was wearing a baseball cap! People do not understand that clothing is a reflection of the decline in Western Democracy. (No I am not joking).
Ok calm down buddy😂 don’t get so upset over how someone else is dressed
@@loganthrift11 Hey troll. Lets meet face to face. You tell me that same thing in person. Otherwise STHU. I have no problem going to where you live sport.
@@stephencurry8552 somebody come get their grandpa,he’s off his meds again lol
@@stephencurry8552 somebody come get their grandpa,he’s off his meds
@@loganthrift11Right back at you, thug.
?
They are ABSOLUTELY gorgeous! You’re a lucky man kirby, any update with the shoes Daniel wegan was making for you ? I look foward to seeing them finished
I cannot overstate how excited I was to receive these. My old Fosters were amongst my most comfortable and I always secretly yearned for a second pair.
Beautiful
An extremely handsome pair of shoes, a bit smarter than my converse trainers
Just a bit...
Kirby is the old foster and sons instagram still active? I see multiple accounts with similar names, but which one was the original? I would like to look at their past work. Thank you.
I'm not totally sure. I can't imagine it still being active because the company is now defunct. But my understanding is that the Japanese creditors own the trademarks, so it is possible that they are just sitting on the dormant account.
Makes sense, thanks.
The Gentelman's shoes !!!
These are next level, aren't they! Probably my most handsome pair of shoes.
They are beautiful, how much?
Free
Only for Kirby 🤣the rest have to pay@@monkeypawism
Kirby Allison should start working for TV. The quality of these videos is too high for TH-cam.
I couldn't agree more. TH-cam gives us no love. Remember, the best way to support our content is by shopping online at Kirby Allison.com or by joining our Patreon!
