William Ross Shoes Launches Site for World’s Best Men’s Dress Shoes on a Budget
Handmade shoes for less than $200
San Antonio, Texas, United States – August 1, 2019 /MarketersMedia/ —
William Ross Shoes has launched its new direct-to-consumer website, offering the world’s best men’s dress shoes for less than $200. The shoes are handmade in a small Spanish village. By selling direct online, the company is able to offer unprecedented quality at an affordable price.
Patrick McGinty, Founder and CEO of William Ross, came to the shoe business originally out of frustration he experienced shopping for dress shoes to wear at a wedding. “It was hard to find the quality of shoe I was looking for at a reasonable price point,” he said. “Then, after settling for a cheap pair that fell apart a few months later, I realized something needed to change.”
From there, McGinty decided to start his business. He had been planning to attend Harvard Medical School, but realized his true wish was to be an entrepreneur instead. After a few months of searching the world, McGinty identified a unique group of master craftsmen, with decades of shoemaking experience, in Spain. They use the highest quality raw materials, such as full-grain Italian Calfskin leather, and the finest construction techniques in Goodyear Welting. They fashion men’s dress shoes with time-honored artisanal techniques.
The company is named after McGinty’s grandfather, William Ross. “He was my inspiration,” McGinty said. “From the moment I began dreaming of this company, I knew I wanted to create a brand that placed people over profit. That was his way of life.” In this spirit, William Ross Shoes donates 10% of its profits to those in need. The company’s current charitable focus is a Soles for Souls, which funds clean water projects around the world.
