Our Story
A family-owned footwear company built on quality, craftsmanship, and customer care since 2008.
Who We Are
CSL Shoes was founded in 2008 in the heart of New York's footwear industry with a straightforward mission: bring well-crafted leather shoes to American families at prices that make sense. What started as a small operation importing a single line of men's dress shoes has grown into a multi-brand footwear company serving customers across the United States.
We are a family-owned business headquartered in Chestnut Ridge, New York. From day one, our approach has been hands-on. We work directly with trusted manufacturers, personally inspect materials and construction, and stand behind every pair we sell. That direct relationship with our suppliers means we control quality at every step without the markups that come from middlemen and large retail chains.
Over the years, we have expanded our portfolio to include three distinct brands, each designed for a different need: Benelaccio for men's dress shoes, Esse Comfort for comfort-focused footwear, and Wizfort for boys' shoes built to last. Together, these brands reflect our belief that quality footwear should be accessible to everyone in the family.

Our Values
Quality First
We source only the finest materials and partner with skilled craftsmen to create shoes that last. Every pair uses genuine leather uppers and undergoes multiple quality checks before shipping.
Customer Care
Your satisfaction is our priority. We are here to help you find the perfect fit every time, with responsive support and honest guidance on sizing, care, and styling.
Trust & Integrity
We stand behind every pair we sell with our 60-day satisfaction guarantee. No fine print, no hassle. If something is not right, we make it right.
Our Brands
Each of our three brands is designed to serve a specific need, with its own identity and focus. Together, they cover dress, comfort, and children's footwear with the same commitment to quality materials and construction.
Benelaccio
Italian-inspired men's dress shoes crafted for the modern professional. From classic Oxfords and cap-toe Derbys to polished loafers, Benelaccio combines timeless design with genuine leather construction built to develop a rich patina over years of wear.
Esse Comfort
Comfort-engineered footwear for men and women who spend long hours on their feet. Esse Comfort shoes feature cushioned insoles, supportive arch design, and premium leather uppers that deliver all-day wearability without sacrificing style.
Wizfort
Quality leather shoes for boys, built to handle the demands of active kids. Wizfort combines durable construction with classic styling for school events, family occasions, and everyday wear. Built tough, priced right.
Quality & Craftsmanship
Every pair of shoes we offer has been carefully selected for quality, comfort, and style. We work directly with trusted manufacturers who share our standards, visiting production facilities and inspecting materials before any product enters our catalog. Our shoes feature genuine leather uppers, reinforced stitching, and cushioned insoles because we believe the details that customers feel on day one hundred matter as much as day one.
We are selective about what we carry. Not every shoe that looks good on paper meets our standards in hand. We test fit, examine construction, and wear-test products before offering them to customers. That is how we keep quality consistent across all three brands and every price point.
The Team Behind CSL Shoes
Behind every pair of shoes is a team that genuinely cares about footwear. Our staff brings decades of combined experience in the shoe industry, from product sourcing and quality control to customer service and fulfillment. As a family business, we operate with a level of personal accountability that larger corporations cannot match. When you call with a question about sizing or need help with a return, you are talking to someone who knows our products inside and out.
We invest in understanding what our customers need. That means staying current on materials, manufacturing methods, and fit standards. It means listening to feedback and adjusting our product lines accordingly. And it means treating every order with the same attention to detail, whether it is your first purchase or your twentieth.
