CHURCH’S VINTAGE LAZYMAN LOAFERS – BLACK - UK 8.5 – WRAITH – EXCELLENT CONDITION
A very fine (and very rare) pair of vintage semi-brogue ‘lazyman’ loafers in beautiful lightly-grained calf leather from Church’s. They are in excellent used condition, overall – notwithstanding a little creasing across the vamps and the odd surface mark here and there – mainly near the toes (see photos). The shoes are unlined for greater comfort in warmer conditions. This design is extremely rare to find - so, you will be highly unlikely to ever meet anyone else wearing the same shoes as you – always a nice feeling, I think.
In my opinion, although modern-day Church’s shoes are still very desirable, well-made and fashioned from first-class materials, they are not quite as exceptional as those from some years ago. So, if you can find a pair of vintage Church’s in really nice condition then you are probably finding some of the nicest shoes around.
Width fitting is ’F’ – which is the ‘standard’ width fitting.
The style is ‘Wraith’ – a beautifully proportioned loafer. These were built on Church’s 150 Last
The shoes feature lightly-grained calf leather uppers and leather soles.
Real style from one of England’s finest shoe makers.
