Our notes
The Continental Brogues are the wingtip sibling of our Continental Derbys — the same characterful, chunky-soled build, dressed up with a full brogue pattern. Sweeping wingtip lines, a punched medallion on the toe, and a burnished finish give the uppers depth and detail, while the shoe keeps the solid, planted stance that sets the Continental apart from a slim dress shoe.
The uppers come in two materials across the colour options: our Italian bio-based vegan leather (62–66% plant-origin materials), and Italian vegan nubuck (100% PU) — one of the finest vegan suedes you can get, Ecolabel certified to Oeko-Tex® 100 and REACH standards. The lacing sits behind hidden metal eyelets for a clean line down the front, with long, extra-strong laces in 100% recycled polyester finished with zamak (a durable zinc alloy) metal tips.
Underfoot is where these earn their name: a stacked look with a hand-painted wood-effect midsole stripe that gives each pair an almost cobbler-made character — the kind of detail you'd expect on a welted shoe — on a chunky, grippy base. They sit tall at a 3.5cm heel and 2cm toe, with a steel shank through the arch for stability and support. Inside, Portuguese vegan suede (100% PU) lines the shoe, soft and breathable against the foot, and the cushioned layered insoles pair a soft memory foam top layer with a recycled PU base (20% recycled PU) for comfort through a full day.
Smart enough for the office, sturdy enough for a wet pavement, these are the brogues with presence — all the detail of the classic wingtip, none of the delicacy.

Bought these to replace old office shoes, not only ethical choice but very sturdy and great look to them. Highly recommend.
Continental Brogues
I love my brogues! Great fit! Ordered a few different styles because I wasn’t sure which ones I wanted and they all didn’t show up. So I got in touch and heard almost immediately. Great service, all very nice, would recommend and I’m keen to buy again.
