About us

The Beginning of a Proud Tradition

At the heart of Campbell & Hayes lies the story of two close friends, Angus Campbell and Edward Hayes, who many years ago shared a simple idea: to create footwear that stood the test of time. What started as a modest workshop with a love for leather and honest craftsmanship grew into a brand known for its timeless style, quiet confidence, and unwavering quality.

A Legacy Built on Craft

For decades, Angus and Edward worked side by side, blending traditional techniques with modern sensibilities. Every stitch, every cut, and every design reflected their belief in doing things the right way, no shortcuts, no compromises. Campbell & Hayes became more than just a name; it became a symbol of enduring quality and humble elegance, trusted by men across the country.

Closing This Chapter

Now, with both Angus and Edward embracing life as proud grandfathers, the time has come to focus on what matters most: family and rest. After deep reflection, they’ve decided to close the doors of Campbell & Hayes. It’s not a farewell out of regret, but a conscious step toward a quieter life, one filled with walks, laughter, and the next generation.

The Shifting Landscape

The world of fashion has changed. Trends move faster, big players dominate, and small independent makers like Campbell & Hayes face new challenges. But rather than compromise their values, Angus and Edward have chosen to step away with pride, knowing they stayed true to their vision.

Thank You

As this chapter comes to a close, Angus and Edward offer their heartfelt thanks, to the loyal customers, the kind words, and the shared stories that made this journey so special. Campbell & Hayes was never just about shoes. It was about connection, care, and tradition.
