Elevating the Art of Shoe Making in the Philippines with Bristol

You might have heard or seen Bristol shoes while shopping at department stores. My earliest memory of Bristol was shopping for school shoes. It is also where my dad bought his shoes for work.

Originated in Marikina, Bristol goes way back to 1984 and prides itself in using the finest materials that are locally sourced. Since the beginning, the company has been known for hand-made products that boast of quality Filipino design, products, and labor. Though available in most department stores, we have visited Bristol’s flagship store at Market! Market! to check out their new products.

This is actually a must-have in any guy’s closet. Though leather shoes can be quite expensive, it is a really good investment especially if the shoes are of good quality that can withstand Manila’s crazy weather.

But if you are a ‘boy next door type’ and would like to be in walking shoes, this pair is perfect for you. This classic design in brown leather is perfect to match with pants or even shorts.
