Loake 1880 Classic Aldwych Toe-Cap Oxford Shoe - Black Hatch Grain

The Loake Aldwych is a refined expression of timeless British shoemaking, embodying Loake’s enduring commitment to craftsmanship and understated elegance. This classic toe-cap Oxford is crafted from premium black grain calf leather, offering both texture and depth to a formal staple. Built on the Capital last — a medium-width shape with a subtle chisel toe — it delivers a balanced, true-to-size fit that complements both business and occasion wear.

Constructed using Goodyear welted techniques, the Aldwych features a durable rubber sole that provides excellent traction and year-round practicality, without compromising on sophistication. As part of Loake’s esteemed 1880 Classic Collection, each pair is designed in Kettering, Northamptonshire, and handmade in Loake’s high-grade English factory. Combining traditional methods with modern refinement, the Aldwych stands as a true wardrobe essential — polished, dependable, and distinctly British.

Each pair comes supplied with protective cloth bags and is best cared for using a shoehorn to preserve its shape and finish.
