Tallis Oxford Shoes

The customer came in and was immediately taken with our more unusual styles on display at the workshop. So we went away and riffed on a couple of designs and came up with the Tallis. He loved the mix of leathers, colours and textures.

He also wanted something hybrid in style, somewhere between a classic oxford and a trainer. This allowed us to throw some unusual lines and shapes into the mix. Along with the suede/smooth leather/lizard combo.

He asked for striking and striking is what he got!
