Blackstock & Weber

Blackstock & Weber is an American menswear brand founded by fashion designer Chris Echevarria in Brooklyn, New York, in September 2017. The company is principally associated with contemporary men’s loafers, combining traditional footwear categories with a fashion-oriented approach to shape, materials, color, and collaboration. Its best-known styles include the Ellis loafer, the Mason horse-bit loafer and related variations, and the Clásico Tassel Loafer. The brand’s design language has been described as drawing inspiration from the Nike Air Force 1, suggesting an interest in translating the cultural visibility and everyday versatility of a familiar sneaker into a more formal footwear category. Its loafers have consequently occupied a space between classic menswear, luxury footwear, and modern streetwear. Most of the company’s shoes are manufactured in England, while at least some collaborative footwear, including the 2023 Kith collection, was made in Portugal. Blackstock & Weber has developed its profile through a broad set of partnerships rather than through a single narrowly defined product line. In 2020, it worked with Lawrence Schlossman and James Harris of the Throwing Fits podcast on an exclusive shoe. The brand subsequently expanded into outerwear, apparel, and limited-edition merchandise. Its 2022 projects included an exclusive puffer-jacket collection with Rocky Mountain Featherbed and merchandise created for Bloomingdale’s 150th-anniversary collection. Other partnerships referenced in connection with the brand include END., Gloverall, J.Crew, and 3sixteen. The company’s 2023 collaborations further connected its loafer designs with fashion, streetwear, and lifestyle communities. It worked with Kith on a line of premium loafers made in Portugal, collaborated with Bee Line—a sublabel of Billionaire Boys Club—released an all-black leather loafer with JJJJound, and produced a tennis-inspired loafer with Danish menswear brand Palmes Tennis Society. Blackstock & Weber also contributed to Lapstone and Hammer’s Philadelphia 76ers collaboration, which brought together designs from several streetwear brands in the team’s colors. In addition to footwear, the brand has released apparel such as 1980s-style ringer T-shirts. The available reference material does not establish a parent company, public listing, standalone corporate ownership structure, official website, revenue figures, employee leadership roster, or a complete account of its current distribution footprint. Its documented identity is therefore best understood as an independent or privately held American fashion brand centered on loafers, limited releases, and cross-category collaborations.

Chris Echevarria founded Blackstock & Weber in September 2017 in Brooklyn, New York. The brand entered the market with a focus on men’s footwear, especially loafers, while applying a contemporary fashion perspective to a traditionally formal category. Its design process was influenced by the Nike Air Force 1, an approach that connected the familiarity and cultural influence of sneaker design with the construction and styling of classic loafers. Most of the brand’s products are manufactured in England. The company developed visibility through collaborations and limited releases. In 2020, it worked with Lawrence Schlossman and James Harris of the Throwing Fits podcast on an exclusive shoe. This partnership reflected Blackstock & Weber’s engagement with menswear media and contemporary style communities, rather than relying solely on conventional footwear retail. In 2022, the brand broadened its offer beyond loafers. It released an exclusive puffer-jacket collection with Rocky Mountain Featherbed and contributed exclusive merchandise to Bloomingdale’s 150th-anniversary collection. It also collaborated with END. on the brand’s Blackjack collection and worked with British outerwear maker Gloverall on an exclusive duffle coat and bucket hat. These projects extended Blackstock & Weber’s identity into outerwear, headwear, and retailer-led special editions. The brand’s collaboration activity continued in 2023. In August, it worked with Kith on a line of premium loafers made in Portugal. During the same year, it collaborated with Bee Line, a sublabel of Billionaire Boys Club, and released an all-black leather loafer with JJJJound. It also partnered with Danish menswear label Palmes Tennis Society on a tennis-inspired loafer. Additional collaborations have involved J.Crew and 3sixteen. Blackstock & Weber contributed as well to Lapstone and Hammer’s Philadelphia 76ers project, which brought together several streetwear brands in the basketball team’s colors. Its documented product range includes the Ellis loafer, the Mason horse-bit loafer and its variations, and the Clásico Tassel Loafer, alongside apparel such as 1980s-inspired ringer T-shirts. The available material does not provide a detailed account of later corporate developments, ownership, revenue, retail infrastructure, or executive succession. The brand’s documented history nevertheless shows a consistent strategy: use a core loafer business as the foundation for collaborations spanning menswear, streetwear, outerwear, retail, media, and sports culture.
