The Worshipful Company of Pattenmakers is one of the
rubber galoshes, pattens became obsolete by the end of the 19th century. Thus, the company's main function is now as a charitable body rather than a guild
or trade association for pattenmakers.
The Pattenmakers' Company ranks seventieth in the order of precedence of City
Livery Companies. Its motto is Recipiunt Fœminæ Sustentacula Nobis, Latin
for "Women Receive Support From Us".
Since the 15th century, the Pattenmakers have been affiliated with St Margaret Pattens, a Wren church located in Eastcheap.[2]
