Ludlow cap-toe bluchers

our new dress shoes are the perfect foundation for Ludlow suits, chinos or denim. We start with thick Italian leather insoles, a cork-bed filler that molds to your foot for a custom fit, and a Goodyear welt, so you can resole them again and again. We use Italian leather that is vegetable tanned, a process with thousands of years of history that gives the leather depth, and a natural look and feel, which improves with age. The blucher comes to us from the 18th century Prussian army, and is similar to an Oxford, but has open lacing, allowing for greater flexibility.
