The John Lobb brand is a highly respected manufacturers in Northampton, a city that became famous as a core of the shoe industry in the seventeenth century. Although the brand has been under Hermes since 1976, the factory continues to uphold the traditional production process developed in the Victorian era.
Modern machines are present but secondary. For instance, lasers are not used to cut leather. Instead, plastic templates are produced, which are handed to specialized artisans called clickers. Their title comes from the characteristic snap of the knife striking the cutting table. With feather knives, they shape the leather in the old-fashioned way.
Production is carefully restricted, with only no more than five hundred pairs made each week. This approach resembles bespoke work. Employees switch between twenty shoe types in a day, instead of repeating one routine step like in typical factories. Every shoe is built with Goodyear welted technology, allowing a leaky sole to be removed without damaging the upper.
As with Hermes, John Lobb chooses only the finest leather, particularly from six-month-old French calves. Only about sixty percent is appropriate for main shoe parts, while the remainder becomes smaller accessories.
The collection combines timeless classics with contemporary tweaks. The City II Oxfords, for instance, have been given a more elegant outline. The Sennen model gained elongated straps and a more robust foundation. The Lopez loafers, introduced in 1950, now include a rubber sole and fresh shades. Newer icons include the Porth sneakers and the Levah shoes, which are produced yearly in a mix of colors and materials.
Through its dedication to craftsmanship, John Lobb continues to be a defining name in English shoemaking.
