Clint Grissom knows all about the value of a good pair of shoes. Having grown up outside of Tularosa, New Mexico, shoes of a quality make were somewhat of a luxury. Clint was always grateful to at least have a pair to get by but longed for the day that shoes would become affordable & stylish.

Clint Grissom then met his longtime friend & soon to be collaborator, Edmund Archuleta, during his first shift at a small cobbler workshop. It was there he & Edmund learned the trade of cordwaining. Even after the two enrolled in college, they already established a reputation that preceded them as custom shoemakers. Clint soon realized that he could finally be the reaching hand that he always wanted as a child. 

Clint & Edmund continue their passion for footwear with a growing business. Servicing loyal customers by providing them with quality shoes, shoe care, & repair. With about a quarter of their profits going towards distributing shoes across the nation to children whose families are poverty stricken. Clint Grissom refers to this as the “stepping stone to a kinder world”. Thus, Stepstone Shoes is your step closer to comfort.
