Article: A New Perspective

A New Perspective

We are delighted to introduce the latest masterpiece in our handmade 1202 Heritage Collection: the Full Brogue Spectator Oxford, now available in a stunning blue and cream handmade patina.

This handmade shoe is a testament to exquisite craftsmanship, featuring a double-beveled waist (fiddleback) meticulously carved by hand, a pitched heel with a flawless curve from the heel collar to the floor, and a captivating blue patina with subtle variations in color that make each pair unique.

The striking blue tones on the cap toe, tarsal strap, facings, and heel, accentuated by intricate brogue detailing, beautifully contrast with the cream base, creating a shoe that stands out in any setting.

100% Handmade

A new Perspective

Perfect for pairing with linen or seersucker suits at summer events, denim for casual weekends, or as a statement piece on casual Fridays at the office, the Full Brogue Spectator Oxford effortlessly complements a variety of wardrobe choices.

If you are unfamiliar with the 1202 Heritage Collection, we introduced this rare fully handmade line in 2018 with our friend Hugo Jacomet of The Parisian Gentleman.

Our objective was to offer a handmade line of shoes that give our customers the opportunity to experience the fit, beauty, and elegance of a fully handmade shoe, without the time and commitment to full bespoke.

Since then, the collection has become a hand-made product line that offered excellent value to the shoe aficionados who are "in-the-know".

Since our shoemakers have a limited capacity outside of handmade shoemaking for our bespoke clients and the hand-finishing for our ready-made line, we kept and still keep this line under-the-radar.

Each handmade pair from this limited collection is hand-lasted, hand-welted and outsole stitched by hand in either our workshop in Barcelona or by our teammate Kenjiro Kawashima who is now based in Seoul, Korea after working with us in Barcelona for 3 years.

Kenjiro is the 3rd place winner of the 2022 Shoemaking World Championship.

For this limited launch, we have allocated space for 6 pairs within our bespoke workload. Once we’ve reached this limit we will not accept more orders until our team has additional capacity.

The Spectator Oxford is not like any average dress shoe. The streamlined silhouette, elongated vamp, slimly carved waist, glove-like fit and elegant design lines will leave a lasting impression.

The Handmade Full Brogue Spectator Oxford from the 1202 Heritage Collection is now available to order and each fully handmade pair will be delivered to you in approximately 11 to 12 months.
