Top 5 plain styles


Here are our top 5 plain styles, in descending order of popularity and all available colours.

Number 1: Herring Chaucer wholecuts in Black Calf

Herring Chaucer is a stunning wholecut shoe, made from fine leathers on a Goodyear welted leather sole. The wholecut is one of the hardest shoes to make. It requires one flawless piece of leather and a craftsman who can meticulously shape that one piece over the last, stitch it to the sole and finish it without a single mistake. Every gentleman should own at least one wholecut just to admire the handcraft that goes into it.

Number 2: Loake Wholebury wholecuts

Loake Wholebury is a new wholecut style where one piece of leather is seamlessly used to create a shoe. It takes great skill to do this and looks incredible. It is made on a Goodyear-welted sole for durability and repairability.

Number 3: Herring Shrewsbury hybrid-soled Oxfords

If you want to experience the ultimate shoe then we would suggest a wholecut has to be a contender. To make this shoe you need a flawless piece of leather, a skilled craftsman to expertly pull the leather over the last without ripping it and a superb hand-finisher to give it the colour and shine it deserves. None of that comes cheap so Shrewsbury represents amazing value for money.

Number 4: Herring Chaucer II Oxfords

The wholecut can be considered the king of all formal footwear styles. Every time you combine leather pieces to create a shoe there will be a stitch and every stitch adds bulk to the profile and silhouette of the shoe. That is why the county brogue with lots of different panels, tends to be worn more casually than the simple toe-cap Oxford. But at the top of the tree, with no stitched panels at all, is the wholecut.
