CM MEASUREMENT VS ACTUAL FOOT LENGTH
For a more precise size guide that is specific to Crown Northampton footwear, we ask that you go by our listed CM measurements vs the actual length of your foot.
In order to get the best size for your feet, follow these simple steps:
1. Place your foot on a piece of paper and mark the two furthest points from your heel to your longest toe, then take the measurement from point to point.
2. Using the size table above you can compare between UK/US/EU sizing in centimetres, we recommend you select a size around 0.4 CM to 0.8 CM longer than your actual foot measurement for the optimum fit.
We take our listed CM measurements directly from the last so this size conversion method is the most accurate and personal to each customer.
COMPLIMENTARY INSOLES (Classic & TL Sneaker Collections Only)
With each Sneaker collection order we add in an extra pair of complimentary insoles with memory foam properties that can be slipped under the existing insoles if desired. This helps achieve a closer fit and in most cases compensates for a half size. This added extra is available with the Sneaker collection only.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Palmeston is a backless mule, slipper design that also draws inspiration from lightweight jazz and dance shoes. Clean, simple, and versatile, the soft leather moulds to your foot, and the sole flexes with natural movement. The handmade natural leather lined upper sits atop a custom-cut Vibram sole unit in a choice of black, white, or gum colour, which are able to be resoled at our Northampton factory if required at a later date. Between the insole and outsole, the shoe features a layer of cork filling which is usually only found in high-quality, hand-made dress shoes. This process acts in a similar way to memory foam, adding comfort and support as your foot gradually beds into the shoe, leaving a subtle and lasting personal imprint of the wearer's feet. This unisex style can be worn with several different smart or casual outfits and the lightweight feel makes this a perfect everyday or travel shoe. Signed off with handwritten internal style notes, our entire Jazz Collection is handmade to order at our factory in Northampton, England.
CLICKER’S NOTES - HAIR ON LEATHER
Hair on leather is bold, confident and unique. Silky to the touch hair on cow is treated in a different way to normal leathers. The hair is left on the hides and dyed to colour or printed with a specific allover pattern. The cow hides that we use are double shaved and of a high so that they can be used for premium footwear as well as small leather goods. The shaving process stops the hair form fraying away during manufacturing, therefore leaving all footwear products neatly finished. At Crown Northampton, we pride ourselves on only using the finest materials available and we carefully select the ideal patterns and finish based on the style that we are making. With our factory located in the world-famous footwear heartland of Northampton, we’re privileged to source leathers from the best leather merchants in England. We only select first-grade calf suede and leather from English tanneries such as CF Stead alongside the finest Italian tanneries.
