A heavy Derby shoe that bears the brogue detailing synonymous with true country shoes. The Bourton is a piece of Northampton shoemaking history, and today they are the go-to shoe for men all around the world.
Leather: Espresso burnished calf leather
Sole: Dainite rubber
Last: 4444
Width: Fit 5 / F / Standard
Made in Northampton, England
A full bellows tongue is folded and attached to the boot to provide a watertight seal, with the storm welt providing an additional watertight seal between the shoe's upper and sole. The profile of a Bourton is characteristically strong; with a solid sole unit, leather linings and a Dainite sole unit.
A deep, rich brown just like a really good espresso should be. Trickers' Espresso Burnished colourway is the perfect tone for those not wanting to wear black. Perfect for all occasions and beautiful when ages and full of the character gained from plenty of wear.
This Bourton is made from calf leather. Calf leather is finer grained, and lighter in weight than the hide of older cattle. This means that it is also more supple. It is also very durable in comparison to its thickness.
We advise using a Brown polish to help care for these. As you put the polish on, darker patches will appear which is the burnish. Don't be afraid, this is the effect of the shoe.
This last has been used for decades. It is part of Trickers history and character as England's oldest shoe manufacturer.
The size (length fitting) of Tricker’s footwear made on this last (4444) is larger than a regular UK size by half a size.
So if you normally take a UK size 8 (equivalent to US size 9, Japan size 27 and EU size 42), we recommend you order a size 7½ and so on.
