John Lobb: Not Just Your Average Shoemaker

Any well-dressed, well-heeled man should know the name John Lobb. As one of the world’s oldest and most traditional shoemakers, it now represents one of the youngest and most innovative shoe brands in Northampton, England.

Mr. Lobb first established his company in London in 1866, but the real luxury lies in knowing how much time, effort and skill have gone into making his quality footwear today. Each pair of John Lobbs takes 190 steps and several weeks to create, making them well worth the investment. Top off your sharpest outfits with a finishing touch from one of John Lobb’s signature shoe styles.

Sneakers

For men who like to think (and dress) outside the box by trying new trends, John Lobb created his casual line of shoes. Extremely comfortable and contemporary, his sneakers combine elegance and relaxation–whether you’re wearing them to work with your best suit or adding a touch of class to your off-duty chinos.

Oxfords

Often considered the most important shoe to invest in, John Lobb oxfords are the perfect complement to any formal or casual event. Be it a business function, wedding or just a casual day at the office, men will make note of your shoe’s distinctive details. (Note the closed entry vamps sewn over the quarters, adding fluidity and contouring)

Monkstraps

Emblematic of the John Lobb style, these buckle shoes are the hallmark of the brand and an instant classic to any man’s closet. We suggest opting for the famous William, created in 1945, that still sets the standards of luxury monkstraps today. Some models are made from a single piece of leather, but it doesn’t matter which style you choose, John Lobb has your feet covered.

Loafers

Practical but polished, the John Lobb loafers are easy to wear and preferred by men who constantly live a fashionable life on the go. Perfect for slipping off at airport security and stepping in on your way to the office, loafers are effortless and versatile. They’re sharp enough for work and simple enough for Saturdays.

Still made the traditional way, John Lobb shoes are anything but average.

Elegant and timeless, John Lobb shoes will last a lifetime.
