Classic Men's Looks #8

The Architect

Featuring architect Will Gowland and our Coffee Burnished Robert Derby Shoe, plus knitwear from John Smedley and jeans from Hiut Denim.

Robert in Coffee Burnished brings a classic Tricker’s profile to the latest in our Classic Men’s Looks series. Worn by architect Will Gowland at Architects Holiday in East Sussex, the open-lace Derby is designed for comfort, versatility and ease of wear, moving naturally between smarter dressing and more relaxed everyday style. With its clean silhouette, generous fit across the instep and richly burnished leather, Robert reflects the qualities at the heart of the campaign: considered design, skilled making and character that develops through use.

“I really appreciate high-quality products, whatever it is, from clothing to tools. I’m not the sort of person that buys cheap stuff to end up constantly replacing it. I much prefer buying things that are going to last for years, decades or a lifetime. It’s much nicer having something that stays with you, evolves with you, and has lots of stories along the way.”

You can tell when something has been built out of genuinely high-quality materials, and when they’ve been put together by somebody who really knows how to work with them. The same is true with a pair of shoes. High-quality materials really make a shoe.”
