The Description
Our ‘Reading’ is a premium boot, featuring Goodyear welted rubber soles for greater longevity and grip. Reading uses the ‘claridge’ last shape for a generous fit and bold toe shape, and is available in a ‘f’ fitting. Reading is handmade in England at 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
Claridge
Another versatile last shape, Claridge is used for both classic English styles and more contemporary shoes. Claridge is a medium width last which should run true to size. There is a little extra (cosmetic only) length in the toe of this last, which has a slightly rounded point.
The Style
Boot
From hard-wearing Brogue Boots to elegant leather-soled Chelsea Boots, our range of Men’s Boots are available in leather or suede options, and feature a vast range of colours, styles and fits, to suit any occasion.
The Collection
1880 Classic
Loake 1880 represents the highest expression of Loake’s English shoemaking craft. Named after the year the company was founded, the collection is crafted in Kettering, Northamptonshire using traditional Goodyear welted construction, premium leathers and time-honoured shoemaking techniques.
Rooted in over a century of craftsmanship and still produced by the fifth generation of the Loake family, Loake 1880 combines enduring British heritage with refined contemporary design.
We think our Reading is great...
Don't just take our word for it though!
