The Bourton is instantly recognisable by its heavy wingtip design, traditional pinked edges, and bold brogue punching. Built on the legendary 4444 last, it features a traditionally generous and roomy country fit with a wide tread and an accommodating toe box. Due to this spacious silhouette, most find they need to drop down half a size from their standard UK dress shoe size for an optimum fit.
Brown Hydro Nubuck: Earthy Resilience Hydro Nubuck is a premium calf skin that has been gently buffed to achieve a soft, tactile surface, then treated during the tanning process for maximum daily utility.
-
Water-Repellent Finish: The specialised "Hydro" treatment ensures that water beads straight off the surface, making this textured leather exceptionally practical, resilient, and stain-resistant in wet weather compared to traditional suede.
-
Rich Brown Hue: A deep, versatile espresso-chocolate shade that provides a beautifully understated matte alternative to traditional smooth calf. The buffed texture lends a refined, contemporary look to the classic country style.
-
Full Leather Lining: Lined entirely with soft, breathable natural calf leather to promote an ideal internal climate and ensure exceptional long-term structural integrity.
Technical Build: The All-Weather Foundation Engineered to handle unpredictable elements while maintaining a clean, classic country profile.
-
Dainite Rubber Sole: Grounded by a British-made Dainite sole, providing excellent traction and slip resistance on wet pavements and country paths alike without adding unnecessary bulk. The classic studded design prevents dirt and gravel from clogging the base.
-
Goodyear Welted Construction: Fully Goodyear welted in our Northampton factory, providing a completely watertight seal and ensuring the shoe can be fully resoled and refurbished for decades to come.
-
Finished Accents: Completed with brass eyelets, a dark brown storm welt, and matching laces that perfectly complement the rich, earthy tones of the Brown nubuck.
