GET TO KNOW THE LENNON DERBY

For our first silhouette of AW25, we wanted an all-rounder. A daily. One you can wear whenever, wherever.

So, we looked through the archives and landed on the Derby – one of the most iconic silhouettes in history. Ours is called the Lennon, and takes its cues from the styles of the 18th century.

New for AW25. Arriving in limited quantities on Thursday 11th September.

Our Lennon Derby is handmade in Europe and comes in three different hand-selected fabrics, including black crust leather, brown cracked leather and cow-print pony hair. Designed in a round-toe silhouette, it features 3cm rubber-lugged soles with a 0.5cm welt for added durability.

And, like the rest of our footwear, it’s complete with considered detailing, including woven cotton laces, custom-debossed eyelets, steel Plus Stars on the soles, and a hand-stitched Plus Star on the heels. The screen-printed cushioned in-socks connect to our DNA, with hand-drawn icons by our in-house artist, Jess.

It’s the culmination of 11 months' work – multiple iterations, rounds of rounds of sampling and weeks of wear-testing to get the Lennon Derby to where it is today.
