We refer to these as the "banker's" shoes, for their conservative look and traditional detailing. The extended cap toe, typical of Stefano Bemer designs, gives this black oxford a rigorous and masculine austerity that we enjoy very much
The Classica Collection is our first and still most popular line. Hand-lasted and welted by hand, it features our signature "swallow bird" burgundy shank sole, which is sewn by hand with a traditional Duer machine.
Considering that the Cap on shoes started as a second layer of leather to enhance protection to the foot, one can say that the cap toe oxford went a long way, from countryside mud to Swiss bankers...
Part of our Classica Collection, these shoes come with individual wool dust bags, lasted wooden shoe trees and our leather maintenance kit with wax, small brush and spare laces, all in a beautiful wooden box for proper storage.
Material: French Box Calf
