That year he offered to craft a pair of shoes for President Millard Fillmore. The President graciously accepted, and a tradition was born.  It was the  start of a tradition that has lasted for more than 150 years.

The tradition continues even today.  In fact, President Obama received two pair from Johnston and Murphy!  Read on to find whose which former President’s boots one pair was modeled after….
