The Elegant Fusion of Three Rows of Stitching and Three Eyelets

John Lobb's year model is released worldwide on the day celebrating "Saint Crispin," the patron saint of shoemakers, cobblers, and leatherworkers. The John Lobb 2014 is a classic Oxford with a plain-toe cap on the 7000 last.

The shoe features an Adelaide (lyre-shaped) design for the inner lacing, and its streamlined, beautiful form, created from a single piece from the vamp to the quarter, is truly "The Masterpiece," befitting a commemorative model. The cap and vamp are stitched together with natural-colored three rows of stitching, and the combination with the three eyelets is exquisite.

Furthermore, the John Lobb 2014 adopts "Brun Lobb," a color used in the 1999 year model. Its pairing with the beautiful form is superb.

A Change of Shoelace Color to Welcome You

October 25th (Saturday), the release date for the John Lobb 2014, is a day to celebrate "Saint Crispin." To express gratitude for the shoes, staff at John Lobb's directly managed stores and the shoe department of Isetan Shinjuku Men's Building will be wearing shoes with different colored shoelaces.

At John Lobb's directly managed stores, look for staff wearing shoes with yellow shoelaces, and at Isetan, staff with red shoelaces.
