Our notes

These classic Goodyear welt Oxfords are made to last. Built with Goodyear welt construction, the most respected method in traditional shoemaking, the upper, lining and a leather welt are stitched together and the sole stitched to the welt — many more stages than a standard glued shoe. The reward comes years down the line: when the rubber outsoles eventually wear, a cobbler can stitch on a fresh pair without disturbing the rest of the shoe. No waste, just proper durability.

The shape is what sets them apart. Built around a beautiful handcrafted last, these Oxfords have a clean silhouette with just the right balance of structure and flow. The welt gives the shoe a defined edge and sharp profile — it holds its shape, sits well on the foot, and gives that unmistakable premium look. Smart enough for formal wear, tough enough for daily use.

Details matter. There's a subtle saw-tooth edge on the tongue, a small design touch that keeps the look traditional but distinct. Made in Portugal and finished by hand, they break in naturally over time, moulding to your foot and becoming more comfortable the longer you wear them.

The upper is cut from our signature Italian vegan leather with 69% bio-based content, fully lined with soft tan vegan suede over deep, cushioned insoles made with recycled content. Long days on your feet are no problem.

These are shoes bought once and worn for years.

 

Upper
Italian bio-based vegan leather (62–66% plant-origin materials)
Lining
Portuguese vegan suede (100% PU) – soft and comfortable against the foot, with a breathable suede texture that helps keep feet fresh
Insole
Memory foam insole over a traditional cork bed – poured into the shoe and moulded to your foot over time, so they get more comfortable the more you wear them
Outsole
Hard-wearing rubber outsole made with 10% recycled rubber – a standard profile that most cobblers can resole easily when it eventually wears
Laces
Long, extra-strong laces (100% recycled polyester), with metal lace tips (100% zamak — a durable zinc alloy)
Shank
TPU shank for stability and support through the arch – metal-free, so they can be worn through metal detectors
Hardware
Hidden metal eyelets that sit behind the vegan leather for a clean finish, with metal lace tips — both 100% zamak (a durable zinc alloy)
Construction
Goodyear welt construction – the most respected method in shoemaking. The upper, lining and a leather welt are stitched together, then the sole is stitched to the welt, building the shoe up in many more stages than a standard glued shoe. It can be resoled again and again by any cobbler, so it lasts for years, and the welted, sealed build holds up better in wet weather
Water Resistance
Water-resistant for everyday wear – keeps you dry in rain, puddles, wet streets, and most winter conditions. Just avoid heavy saturation or full submersion.
Width
D width fitting – a slightly wider fit with more volume than standard
Fit
Order your usual size. Half size? Wider width fittings size up, narrower width fittings size down.

Almond toe
Instep
Flat insole through the arch
