Loake Men’s Shop By Style Aldwych | Black Calf Leather

The Description

The Loake Aldwych is a premium men’s Oxford shoe, crafted from fine black calf leather for a timeless and versatile finish. Built on the Capital last, it provides a classic F fitting with a sleek toe cap design, making it ideal for business, formal, and evening wear. Featuring Goodyear welted construction with fully leather soles, Aldwych delivers exceptional comfort, durability, shape retention, and the benefit of resoling for extended life. Designed and engineered in Kettering, Northamptonshire, and handmade in Loake’s high-grade factory in England, these men’s shoes embody traditional craftsmanship, enduring quality, and elegant British style.

We recommend using a shoehorn to help maintain the shape, prevent creasing of the heel, and allow the foot to glide in with ease – keeping your shoes looking their best and feeling comfortable from the first wear.

Please note, these shoes come with a complementary pair of protective cloth bags.
