The Whittier is a unique wholecut oxford, featuringpseudo aprons and heel counters.
This model is a classic black calfskin, and sits on our soft-chisel LPB last, with a commando sole for a subtle but rugged look and feel.
I have always loved the Whittier design as one that I can claim as uniquely my own. In Winter, I always find myself wearing boots and never shoes. I do that as a single leather sole feels quite cold on the frozen NYC pavement. I have been wanting a shoe that can offer me the comfort and protection of a Winter style boot but in shoe form and on the dressier side. The Whittier design felt perfect for this balance and so I decided to try it in the two types of leather that I felt made the most sense for flannel-style suits and clothing. And I love how they came out. I hope that you do too!
