With autumn on its way, we thought it was about time we took a look at one of our most beautiful boots, the Corsham.
This is a perfect country gent’s boot with a strong, but light-weight cleated sole, with a wonderful cedar grain calf upper with brogue detailing.
Due to feature in our Autumn Weekend edit, we think the Corsham is the perfect laced boot that is equally comfortable on a crunchy leafy walk through the woods as well as it is lounging by a log fire in a country pub or hotel.
The Corsham is a homage to the great British manufacturing heritage of the Northamptonshire area of England. This brogue boot epitomises the great handiwork of Goodyear-welting factories that goes back over two hundred years.
This version has been made by the experts at Barker. They do not make this style for anyone else, just Herring.
Barker England was founded in 1880 by Arthur Barker, who had the vision to create some of the finest shoes in the British footwear heartland of Northamptonshire. Every pair of shoes or boots Barker makes goes through 165 production stages and takes six to eight weeks to make.
In short, Barker-manufactured shoes are made by the finest craftsmen. Barker’s shoe skills have been developed for more than 140 years to provide exceptional quality, fit and comfort.
And, as these oh-so fine boots are Goodyear-welted, so you can wear them in so the upper feels like your favourite slippers and you can get them re-soled when you need to. With the Corsham, you get great comfort, durability and style in a timeless boot.
