Verona Crocodile Wingtip Oxford
Patina is painted by hand, which is why the colour sits deep in some tiles and barely at all in others. Across the toe the tiles are large and square. Up the shaft they tighten and turn round.
Brogueing throughout. The wing runs back from an almond toe, punched along its edge, and the perforations carry on around the quarters and the heel.
It laces, and takes a side zip, so it can be put on without unlacing. Cowhide lining, full-grain leather insole, Vibram rubber outsole.
Blue or brown, EU 38 to 47.
Every skin is chosen individually, so no two pieces carry the same pattern.

Crocodile scales are horn rather than hide. Heat and direct sun dry them, and a dried tile lifts at the edge and will not lie flat again.
Wipe with a soft dry cloth along the run of the tiles. Blot rain rather than rubbing it, and let the piece dry in a cool room, never near a radiator or under a hairdryer.
Condition it two or three times a year with a product made for exotic leather, and use less than you think. Wax polish collects in the seams and takes the light out of them.
Keep it in its dust bag, unpressed and unstacked. Anything beyond a wipe is better brought to us.

How to measure
In order to select the correct shoe size, we recommend you measure your feet using the following guidelines.
Wear the kind of socks or tights you would normally wear with this type of shoe.
Stand up straight on a flat surface with your heel against a wall. If necessary, ask someone else to help you take the measurements.
Measure from the base of your heel, keeping it pressed against the wall, to the tip of your longest toe.
Always measure both feet and use your longest foot as your benchmark.
