Hitchcock in the fall of 1951 in the cellar of his home in Hingham, Massachusetts. A veteran of the New England shoe industry, Mr. Hitchcock noticed many men who, like himself, had served in World War II, were not able to find footwear in civilian life that fit as wide as the boots and shoes they had had in the military. To fill this need, Hitchcock produced his first catalog, offering 10 men’s wide styles. By 1956, Hitchcock Shoes was a thriving mail-order catalog business featuring 20 styles with 4,800 customers and mailings of 25,000 printed catalogs.
