The iconic Consul has been gracing the feet of the english gentry since 1945 and was named historically after the English ambassadors and politicians who wore it. A classic cap toe oxford crafted on the 173 last, the time-honoured Consul has become our most popular style to date due to it’s sleek, elegant and uncomplicated, yet formal appeal. ------A high-shine polished binder finish is achieved by buffing the grain and replacing it with pigment, gradually building depth of shading to enhance the natural beauty of the leather, while double stitching on the toe cap and quarter lining add defining details to this exemplary style.------Made in Northampton, England.
