The Bourton Country Shoe is a piece of Northampton shoemaking history, instantly recognisable by its bold wingtip profile, traditional pinked edges and heavy brogue punching. Made on our 4444 last in a 5 width fitting, it has the generous proportions of a classic Tricker’s country shoe, with a wide tread and roomy toe box. Most customers find they can drop down half a size from their standard UK shoe size for the best fit.
This version comes in Barolo Castorino Suede: Luxurious Tactility Castorino is a premium full-grain reverse suede, celebrated for its exceptionally plush handle and resilient nature. Deep Barolo Hue: Named after the famous Italian red wine, this rich, deep burgundy shade introduces a sophisticated, high-character element to your wardrobe. It acts as a highly versatile alternative to traditional browns or blacks, pairing beautifully with dark denim, navy tailoring, or heavy winter tweeds. Velvety Short Nap: The dense, fine-grained fibres of the hide create a uniform matte nap that absorbs light beautifully, allowing the intricate brogueing and wingtip detailing to stand out with exceptional clarity.
Each pair of Bourton brogues is handmade in our Northampton factory in England by skilled craftspeople using traditional methods, and to the same exacting standards that first established our reputation. Built using Goodyear welted construction for durability and the option to be resoled in years to come, it is finished on a Ridgeway rubber sole, giving the shoe the profile of a heavier treaded sole with added shock absorption underfoot.
