EDWARD GREEN “External Feather U-Tip DOVER

Edward Green is the world’s most prestigious British shoe brand, on par with John Robb. The Dover is one of Edward Green’s most traditionally popular models, and is a coveted pair for men. The most attractive feature of the U-tip mocca is the magnificent “skin stitching,” a sewing method in which the inside of the leather is sewn by hand, and it is one of the most difficult of the many sewing techniques in which the toe is fished in by hand. It can be avoided if high-quality leather is not used, and two elements are indispensable: the skill of skilled craftsmen and high-quality materials. In addition to the beauty of the stitching and design, the dark oak color that creates an antique atmosphere is also superb.

In the era of the new normal, where casual style is becoming more mainstream, a pair of leather shoes like the Dover, which can be worn in a moderately sporty manner, is very useful. It will be a perfect match for not only casual style but also for sporty jackets.

Santoni “Inside Feather Straight Tip SA*09032”

The Italian brand Santoni can be said to be the driving force behind the Classico Italia boom in Japan. Italian shoes, including this brand, have a strong image of the Mackay method, but the Goodyear welt method also has considerable technical capabilities. The moderate and not overly assertive cowl maintains an excellent balance without interfering with the graceful silhouette of the upper. The outsole is also made of genuine leather, which provides excellent breathability and water absorbency. The long-nose silhouette, slender square toe, and narrowed waist give these shoes an attractive finish with the sex appeal of Italian shoes.

Alden “Coin Loafer 987

These coin loafers are made by Alden, a leading American brand. While being a basic loafer, it has an overwhelming presence due to the cordovan material, which is the family heirloom. The country where the Goodyear welt manufacturing method was born is also the birthplace of this loafer, and the careful stitching techniques are second to none. In addition, the moccasin stitching and iconic burgundy painting are sure to charm the eye.
