Sometimes our favourite designs just slips through our fingers. Here’s one of the crowd favourites, the Balmoral cap toe brogue from a recent Special Group Made to Order project in May 2020. This design was modified from our Duxton model to one with straight captoe with brogues. Paired with the hatch grain full grain calf leather, it gives a distinctive textured look to a classic elegant Oxford design. We love these!

A CLOSER LOOK

Hatch Grain Calf, Espresso Colour
Horwwen Leather Co.

The embossed pattern is a stunning reproduction and tribute to the 200 year-old Russian Hatch Leather brought up from the wreck of the Metta Catharina, which sunk off the English Channel in 1786. Laboriously chrome tanned with aniline treatment on top that gives a supple tannage, this leather is an excellent choice for fine shoes. 

MAY WE RECOMMEND?

Thomson Split Toe Derby

While the above featured product is unavailable as a single purchase, we have other recommendations for you. The Thomson derby is our most popular MTO shoe model. It features hand-sewn reverse skin-stitched "pie-crust" apron and combines extremely well with the Horween Hatch Grain leather for a definitive look.
