An Oxford Shoe with a Special Episode
"STAFFORD" is a popular shoe by request, but it is not currently in John Lobb's ready-to-wear lineup. This is because "CITY II" and "PHILLIP II" (both on the 7000 last) are overwhelmingly popular among John Lobb's Oxford shoes, leading to the discontinuation of STAFFORD over time.
Unlike other models, this season sees the return of the straight tip, characterized by its facing (the trim or lining stitched to the inner edge of the shoe opening) positioned on top, as a Japan-exclusive release.
Elegance Emphasized by the Side Lines
The toe cap of the Stafford has no punching, giving it a very simple impression at first glance. On the other hand, the beautiful individuality of the stitched side design shines through.
The Stafford offers a perfect balance, with the refined presence and beautiful materials unique to the Prestige line. The availability in four colors across calf and suede is also appealing.
