The Classic Collection
Northampton Craft: The Classic Collection
We're privileged to call Northampton home, the heart of British shoemaking, and our Classic Collection of made-to-order sneakers is a testament to that heritage. Introduced in 2018, this collection reflects centuries of shoemaking expertise passed down through generations of our staff, many of whom are 3rd and 4th generation shoemakers.
Minimalist luxury
The designs are intentionally minimal, reflecting styles that have been made in Northampton for over 1000 years, updated for modern times. We've cut the patterns to show as little stitching as possible, with as few joins as possible. The skill of our staff and the quality of our materials create a modern, timeless, and contemporary look.
Our Classic Collection features uppers of Box calf, Horween, and Steads leathers, fully lined with Northampton calf and finished with our own cup sole, available in different fittings to work with any foot shape. Rooted in our town's heritage, built to last many a resole.
