Craftsmanship
Crown Northampton believes that ‘Made In England’ should mean ‘Made In England', from start to finish. We are fully committed to making all of our sneakers, shoes and boots here in England, with no outsourcing of labour or manufacturing to overseas factories.
This code of practice ensures that we have full control of our products from the early design stages to the final quality checks and finishing. We are proud to be one of the few remaining boot and shoe factories that manufacture 100% of products in England and have done since 1908.
We only employ skilled shoemakers and passionate apprentices who can be taught the local tried and tested ways of working.
Since 1908.ABOUT THE JAZZ COLLECTION
The Jazz Collection carries an air of quiet confidence paired with the ultimate in laid-back minimal styling. The first range ever to be created under the Crown Northampton brand name, the Jazz Collection set the tone for all styles that followed with a clean aesthetic and design DNA that flows throughout the entire company - perfectly illustrated when compared to our Sneaker Collection. These values are achieved by carefully combining traditional construction with modern-day styling; core design principles that run throughout all Crown Northampton footwear.
Since launch, our Jazz styles have become hugely popular in Japan and are stocked in the most premium and directional of stores such as Beams, United Arrows, and Ships.
The secret to the success of Jazz and its ongoing popularity lies in its versatility and simplicity. A unisex collection that can be effortlessly styled for both men and women and sits equally comfortable when dressed up or down. Jazz focuses on lightweight construction, minimal styling, comfort, flexibility, and elevated premium materials.
Often adopted as a summer wardrobe staple that can be worn sockless, the premium calf and kudu materials used across the range enable Jazz styles to be worn year-round throughout
the seasons; with a lightweight balance and supreme comfort that makes them the perfect traveling companion.
