CHURCH'S VINTAGE BROGUES – BROWN / TAN - UK 7 – BARCROFT - SUPERB CONDITION

A super (and very rare) pair of vintage Custom Grade cap-toe quarter-brogue oxford shoes in beautiful sandalwood bookbinder leather from Church’s. They are in superb used condition overall - notwithstanding a little creasing across the vamps and the odd surface mark here and there (see photos). This pair had a set of rubber over-soles fitted when new but they have been removed to reveal the original leather sole underneath.

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.

But, please remember, these are not new so do not bid on them if you want a pair of completely unmarked shoes – they will cost considerably more !!

The width fitting is ‘F’ - which is the ‘standard’ width fitting.

The style is ‘Barcroft’ – a very elegant, five-eyelet oxford design featuring a punched band between the vamps and the toe cap. This is a very rare design to find - so, you will be very unlucky to ever meet anyone else wearing the same shoes as you – always a nice feeling, I think. This pair were built on the 84 Last.

The shoes feature leather soles, bookbinder leather uppers and lightweight leather / linen linings – plus all the build-quality that one expects from this traditional English shoemaker – gorgeous.
