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.
Whiskey Hydro Nubuck: Golden Resilience Hydro Nubuck is a premium calf skin that has been gently buffed to achieve a soft, velvety surface, then treated during the tanning process for maximum daily utility.
-
Water-Repellent Finish: The specialised "Hydro" treatment ensures that water beads off the surface, making this textured leather far more practical, resilient, and stain-resistant in wet weather than standard suede.
-
Warm Whiskey Hue: A rich, golden-tan shade that serves as a high-character alternative to standard smooth calf. The matte, buffed texture catches the light beautifully, highlighting the depth of the finish and the expert brogue detailing.
-
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 tonal eyelets, a dark brown storm welt, and matching laces that perfectly complement the rich, golden tones of the Whiskey nubuck.
