Australian brand R.M.Williams has a stylish new store in Marlow showcasing the brand’s footwear & accessories

Marlow is literally half a world away from the rugged Aussie outback. However, this well-heeled town might well be the perfect stomping ground for R.M.Williams, the heritage footwear, apparel and accessories brand.  

Founded 92 years ago, Reginald Murray Williams’ vision was to craft high quality, durable boots and leather goods, built to last in the Australian landscape. Renowned for signature one piece of leather construction, R.M.William’s technique not only enhances the boot’s durability and integrity but also creates a seamless look that’s stylish and functional, at home in the countryside and a busy city office.  

“The UK has been part of the R.M.Williams story for many decades,” says Paul Grosmann, the brand’s CEO, “and we’re thrilled that our next chapter of UK investment is spearheaded by the impressive new Marlow opening. Marlow’s heritage and character makes the town an ideal setting for introducing the brand’s handcrafted products to a community who appreciate quality authenticity.”   

Located at 46 High Street, the 1,700sq ft store features R.M.Williams’ new retail design concept, first introduced at the brand’s global flagship store in Sydney last December. The new store embraces the skills of local British craftspeople, set against a backdrop of leading-edge retail innovation. In terms of product, the Marlow store will include new season boots, apparel and accessories, a Marine Blue Comfort Craftsman, exclusive to the Marlow store and the brand’s largest women’s offering in the UK.   

Among the British craftspeople R.M.Williams has partnered with for the Marlow opening are furniture makers Timberwoolf and Morgan and Rush Matters, the Bedfordshire creator of the Marlow window plinths and in-store risers, woven from British rush, harvested by hand.   

R.M.Williams operates two London stores in New Bond Street and Berwick Street, Soho, and sells through 90 wholesale partners nationwide. A second new R.M.Williams store will launch in Cambridge in December in line with the brand’s strategy to target UK towns with a high concentration of consumers who value quality, craft, and timeless heritage.
