Herring Elgin

4 July 2013

The Herring Elgin is a gibson fronted longwing brogue. The longwing brogue was most popular in the 1970s in the USA but has seen a revival recently. The Elgin is available in a brown chromex leather which has a greasy lusture. Using a chromex leather gives the shoe a waxy rugged feel to it and the longwing design just adds to this, not to mention the dainite sole! What’s more, chromex leather can developed a really unique patina over time.

We also have the Erskin (chukka boot) in the Chromex leather which you can find here!

Two-tone country brogues

3 July 2013

If there is one thing you can probably guess from our shoe collection it is that we love a good two-tone shoe. The changes in texture and colour can make a somewhat ordinary shoe come alive. Here we have a country brogue and boot made real unique by the black and tan contrast colour combination. They are both on a rugged commando sole, which whilst adds to the striking, unique look of the shoes also means they are the perfect shoe for any weather!

On another note our summer sale has started with some great offers to be had! Take a look here.

Navy Shoes

21 June 2013

We believe that navy is one of the most underrated colours for footwear. It’s a colour that looks good with jeans or even with a suit to give a contemporary feel to it. We have a few great styles in this unique colourway. Our styles also play with texture with a suede and leather two tone effect which creates footwear that will be sure to make you stand out from the crowd.
