Canons Trunk Show
Palm Beach Trunk Show
We will next be in Palm Beach on the 2nd & 3rd November 2026 for our Fall Trunk Show. We visit twice a year, staying in The Brazilian Court Hotel.
Your appointment will be with our last-maker Simon Bolzoni, and is an individual 1 hour consultation hosted in the privacy of his suite. During this time, we will comprehensively measure and make annotations of your feet, discuss your individual requirements and any particular issues that need to be addressed in your new footwear. You will have the opportunity to view a significant number of selected samples from our historic archive, and be guided through our extensive collection of leather options, including our unique hand-coloured calfskins. All appointments must be booked in advance, and are limited in availability.

With its elegant architecture and quiet sense of calm, this historic Palm Beach landmark has welcomed many clients of ours during its long history- including icons Fred Astaire and Cary Grant, making it a fitting setting for our trunk show.

Simon Bolzoni
Lastmaker & Managing Director of Canons
Simon began his training in last-making in 2006 under Terry Moore, London’s pre-eminent bespoke lastmaker. Building upon this traditional foundation, he has continued to develop Canons’ own methods of individual last-making and pattern cutting. His approach combines an understanding of each client’s fitting requirements with careful consideration of the proportions and character of each shoe.
