The Description
The Loake Chester is a premium brogue shoe, crafted from burnished tan calf leather for a rich, timeless appearance. Built on the traditional 024 last, it offers a comfortable F fitting with a classic rounded profile that embodies enduring British style. Featuring Goodyear welted leather and rubber soles, Chester combines flexibility, grip, and excellent durability, with the added benefit of resoling to extend its lifespan. Designed and engineered in Kettering, Northamptonshire, and handmade in our high-grade factory in England, these mens shoes showcase Loake’s dedication to fine craftsmanship, comfort, and elegance. A versatile classic suited to smart or formal wear.
We recommend using a shoehorn to help maintain the shape, prevent creasing of the heel, and allow the foot to glide in with ease – keeping your shoes looking their best and feeling comfortable from the first wear.
Please note, these shoes come with a complementary pair of protective cloth bags.
The Last
024
024 is one of two country last shapes Loake use currently. It is used for less formal shoes such as our iconic ‘Chester’ brogue and ‘Burford’ boot. Like most country style last shapes, 024 is a little roomier by design to allow for thicker socks to be worn. The toe shape is rounded on this last.
The Style
Brogue
No English gentleman’s wardrobe is complete without a pair of handcrafted Goodyear welted brogues. With punched holes (originally designed to allow water to drain from the shoe), choose from a wide selection of Leather or Rubber-soled options in Oxford or Derby constructions, in a vast array of colours and styles.
The Collection
1880 Classic
A collection of classic styles crafted from high-quality, calf leathers and featuring the famous Goodyear Welted construction. Reflecting the traditional heritage of Loake dating back to 1880, many of our hand-finished, luxurious styles in this collection have become icons in their own right.
All 1880 Classic styles are made in our Northamptonshire factory, located in the heart of England.
