CHURCH’S VINTAGE BROGUES – BROWN / MAHOGANY - UK 7.5 – ASCOT - EXCELLENT CONDITION
A very fine (and very rare) vintage pair of Custom Grade full-brogue oxford shoes in beautiful brown / mahogany calf leather from Church – perfect town and country footwear. They are in excellent used condition overall – notwithstanding a little creasing across the vamps and the odd surface mark here and there (see photos). Top quality leather in this colourway always develops a beautiful patina over time – and these are doing very nicely indeed. This is a very rare design to find - so, you will be very unlikely to ever meet anyone else wearing the same shoes as you – always a nice feeling in my opinion.
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 width fitting is ‘F’ – which is the ‘standard’ width fitting.
The style is ‘Ascot’ – a beautifully proportioned full-brogue oxford design formed on the rare 38 Last.
The shoes feature leather soles, calf leather uppers, full leather linings and all the build-quality that one expects from this traditional English shoemaker.
