Our ‘Patent’ is a premium patent Leather Oxford dress shoe, featuring cemented leather & rubber soles for greater quality. Perfect for Weddings and special occasions, our Patent uses the ‘claridge’ last shape, and is available in a ‘f’ fitting. These men’s shoes are designed and engineered in Kettering and made in our high-grade factory in India, using similar materials and techniques as can be seen in our Northamptonshire factory.
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.
Whether you are looking for a classically-styled plain tie shoe, or a simple, everyday shoe, our selection of dress shoes are available in a multitude of leathers, on either leather or rubber soles, for any occasion.
