Hot The Anthology Street Slippers by Bowhill & Elliott for – Black Suede

We are delighted to co-create this street slipper with Bowhill & Elliott, the last remaining slipper maker in the UK. This esteemed house still upholds the traditional ethos of “make in the back, sell in the front,” with the entire shoemaking process taking place within two floors.

The upper pattern of the street slipper is meticulously hand-cut from a single piece, resulting in a more fluid and seamless design. Departing from the conventional Albert-style evening slipper, this tailored creation features a shorter vamp and eliminates sharp turns on the tongue, maintaining a consistently soft contour. This complements the natural curves of our tailoring, allowing for a more casual styling option. Imagine a standard slip-on loafer, but refined with one-piece leather and a thin, hand-attached sole that closely hugs the bottom of the shoe, exuding understated elegance. It pairs beautifully with trousers, denim, and shorts alike.

Crafted from calf suede in a rich black shade, the upper is both supple and durable, allowing for comfortable movement in this hand-lasted slipper. This design elevates the common loafer, adding an extra touch of sophistication and individuality to your ensemble. The colour allows them to be worn beyond everyday, but also when a black tie dress code calls for.

Summary:

– UK sizing

– Black calf suede upper
