The Description

Our ‘Darwin’ is a premium Loafer, featuring cemented leather soles. Darwin uses the ‘Origin’ last shape for a comfortable fit, and is available in a ‘F’ fitting. These shoes are designed and engineered in Kettering and made in Portugal, using similar materials and finishing techniques as used in our Northamptonshire factory.

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.

The Last

Origin

Elegant loafer last, designed with concept in mind this is an F fitting, created to fit unstructured cement lasted footwear. The last offers a soft rolled toe without having a chiselled appeal.
