Well Heeled Bespoke Tricker’s - with Adele Williamson (#153)

This week, we’re stepping into a cosy workshop in Cheltenham to chat with Adele Williamson, bespoke shoemaker at the legendary Tricker’s of Northampton. We explore how Adele found her way into shoemaking, the rich heritage of Tricker’s, and what makes a bespoke shoe truly special. From the surprising number of machines involved to the passionate customers who appreciate the craft — it’s a fascinating look into a proud British tradition. As always, links are in the show notes — and if you’ve got guest suggestions, I’d love to hear from you: welldresseddad@gmail.com.
