About

If you’re looking for activewear shoes, casual walking shoes, or something comfortable that will still look good with a suit and tie, San Antonio Shoes likely has it.

San Antonio Shoes, or SAS, is known for its focus on quality and comfort. The company was founded by Lew Hayden and Terry Armstong, both of who, after working for a local shoe company, decided to start their own business in San Antonio, Texas.

San Antonio Shoes was founded in 1976 and has been making genuine leather shoes ever since. Over the years, the company has expanded to include manufacturing warehouses in San Antonio and Del Rio, Texas. SAS is impressive for a company that started with almost no marketing and expanded by word of mouth.

Today, San Antonio Shoes continues to grow with a full lineup of shoes that includes activewear, walking, sandals, flats, pumps, and boots. Their shoes are carried in over 200 SAS stores across the United States and in retailers worldwide.

All in all, for quality handmade shoes, you can’t go wrong with San Antonio Shoes. They really do hold their shoes to a high standard. The company continues to be family-owned and has an impressive process for designing and making each pair of those that can take up to 100 different steps.

Note – they have some manufacturing in Italy, mostly for select styles of dress shoes.
