With the winter chill fading and sunnier, summery days on the horizon, it’s time to take stock of your seasonal wardrobe and welcome it firmly into spring. First things first: shoes, and what beats a fresh new style from Crockett & Jones’ SS25 collection? We’ll wait…
Those who know Crockett & Jones will, inevitably, love the British shoemaker for its quality craftsmanship, heritage feel and classic designs. Every model of loafer, boot, Oxford and Derby is carefully crafted from fine leathers in its Northampton factory, with every detail finessed to offer a finished product guaranteed to impress even the most sophisticated of gentlemen. And, when it comes to warm weather footwear, its new Spring/Summer collection is the thing to dip your toes into.
Staying true to its roots, but introducing a modern twist, the recently launched collection blends old with new by welcoming a contemporary suede upper and wedge rubber sole to some of Crockett & Jones’ best-loved designs. From a lined summer loafer to perennial spring favourite, the chukka boot, and an interpretation of a classic Oxford, the collection includes a shoe for every man, vibe and occasion. Each featuring the new wedge rubber sole, which is flexible, grippy and hard-wearing, Reverse Butt Suede also enters the scene, providing a durable leather ideal for unlined footwear.
So, what’s on offer? Let us introduce you to the only shoes you need add to your footwear rotation this season…
First up, your summer loafer: the Salcombe 2. You may already be well acquainted with its predecessor – Crockett & Jones’ best-selling plain-front loafer, the Salcombe. Slick and stylish, this fresh iteration takes the classic silhouette and adds wedge soles for a modern, refreshed touch, ideal for summer months. Available in three subtle, tonal shades – pistachio, snuff and desert suede – and featuring box stitching, the leather-lined, minimalist loafer is the perfect shoe to add timeless charm to your look for summer days and for balmy evenings.

Then there’s your summer Oxford, the Tresco. A casual shoe that can be dressed up or down, the relaxed silhouette comes in pistachio, pastel blue and khaki hues and is complete with the new wedge rubber soles. Made using the shoemaker’s unstructured construction method, and removing the toe stiffener you’ll find in other collections, the Tresco features lightweight ribbing and flexible welts for improved comfort. Ideal for laidback summer weddings and all-day garden parties, then.

Last but not least is the Chukka 4, your summer boot. When brighter, warmer days require a smart, characterful shoe that is breathable, cool, suave and classy in equal measure, turn to the Chukka 4. Crockett & Jones has been creating Chukka boots for more than 50 years now — and the design just keeps getting upgraded. Version 4 is playful and practical, crafted from reverse butt suede in olive, taupe, indigo and dark brown hues guaranteed to elevate your look. Wear with your favourite chinos for dress-down Fridays or pair with smart jeans for an elegant approach to smart-casual.
