Grenson
This month British shoe staple Grenson has opened their Jermyn Street Pop-Up and will feature a range of services. Grenson: Lab the stand out element features a drop-in service so customers can choose leathers, colours and soles and really have their own personal pair of Grensons.

Tim Little, Creative Director and Owner says “We have wanted to have a store on Jermyn Street for a long time because in many ways Jermyn Street is the Saville Row for shoes and we have always felt that Grenson belonged there. I don’t know for sure but it’s almost certain that our founder, William Green would have walked up and down the street in the 1800’s presenting his shoes to the retailers of the time.” 1800’s presenting his shoes to the retailers of the time.”
