**"The perfect athletic shoe, made by hand.” - Gear Patrol**
Handmade in New England by a company that’s been making custom-fit running shoes for over three decades, these sneakers are stylish, durable, and represent American shoemaking at its best. It all starts with the top-shelf pigskin suede and mesh panels that are cut by hand in their Massachusetts workshop, and then sewn and lasted in a process with more individual and handmade steps than even the most experienced cobblers could shake a stick at. Finished with specialized soles that can be replaced throughout the life of the shoe, Victory Sportswear’s sneakers are built to last a lifetime — in the words of Jim Koch, the owner of Sam Adams Brewery and an avowed Victory customer “the only problem with your shoes is they last too long.” We’ll cheers to that.
