About Woodlore

Woodlore is a cedar products company launched in 1987 as a division of Allen Edmonds, manufacturing cedar shoe trees, hangers, closet organizers, and pet and gift products at its facility in Port Washington, Wisconsin.

Heritage & History

Woodlore was launched in 1987 as a division of Allen Edmonds, beginning with cedar shoe trees made to protect Allen Edmonds' fine leather welted shoes. The company was branded separately as "Woodlore" so it could concentrate on creating wooden products both for Allen Edmonds and for competing shoe brands and major department stores worldwide, with its manufacturing facility located just across the road from Allen Edmonds' own operations in Port Washington.

In recent years the success of its shoe trees has allowed Woodlore to expand into fine shoe and clothing care products such as handcrafted cedar hangers, shoe and clothing racks, closet organizers, and pant trolleys, as well as lifestyle products including pet products and gifts, all made to the same quality standards as the original shoe trees. Its customer base has grown to include major home-furnishing and closet-organizing companies around the globe.

Made in Port Washington, Wisconsin

Every "Made in the USA" shoe tree Woodlore makes originates from sustainably grown Eastern red cedar cut from the Arkansas and Missouri Ozarks, milled and assembled at the company's manufacturing facility in Port Washington, Wisconsin. The company says its cedar is rich with red heartwood, which it credits for superior moisture absorption and fragrance compared to competitors that use lesser-grade, often imported, sapwood cedar, and it guarantees a minimum of 80% red heartwood content in every product.

Each piece receives a fine-sanded, silken finish and is fitted with heavy-gauge, brass-plated hardware for durability, backed by a lifetime guarantee against mechanical defect. Woodlore also describes environmental practices at the facility, including selective cutting that lets cedar regrow faster than it is harvested, manufacturing techniques designed to minimize waste, and reuse of wood chips, shavings, and sawdust, alongside recycled and recyclable packaging.
