CHURCH’S VINTAGE OXFORD – BLACK - UK 8.5 – CONSUL - EXCELLENT CONDITION
A super, vintage pair of Church’s iconic Custom Grade, five-eyelet, cap-toe oxford shoes in beautiful black calf leather - a lovely example of a Church’s classic. They are in excellent used condition, overall – notwithstanding a little creasing across the vamps and the odd surface mark here and there (see photos). This pair are in their original box.
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.
The style is ‘Consul IV’ – traditional, elegant, never out of place and one of Church’s best known designs. This pair were formed on the popular 73 Last.
The width fitting is ‘F’ – which is the ‘standard’ width fitting.
The shoes feature leather soles, calf leather uppers, lightweight leather / linen linings and all the build-quality that one expects from this traditional English shoemaker.
