{"product_id":"barker-wallis-boat-shoe-dark-brown","title":"Barker Wallis Boat Shoe Dark Brown","description":"\u003cp\u003eA deep coffee brown calf, smooth and given a natural finish rather than a high shine, with the lacing running round the quarters in pale tan leather. That tan against the dark brown is the only contrast on the shoe, and it is what makes it look like a boat shoe rather than a moccasin. A white rubber sole keeps the bottom line clean. Dark brown is the colour to choose if your summer wardrobe is built on chinos and stone-coloured linen, and it is the easier of our two Wallises to wear with a brown belt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCalf worn without socks softens quickly and takes the shape of the foot, and the vamp will crease across the flex point within a few wears. That is the shoe settling rather than wearing out. Feeding the leather every few weeks keeps it supple and stops the creases from going hard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBarker build the Wallis with lockstitch construction on their 471 last in an F fitting, with a full leather insole and lining and hand-stitched detailing round the apron. The sole is full rubber rather than leather, which is the sensible choice for a shoe meant for decks, gravel and wet pavements. Designed in Northampton. UK sizes 6 to 12.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe also stock the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/barker-wallis-boat-shoe-navy\"\u003eWallis in navy calf\u003c\/a\u003e, which has brass eyelets and a much stronger contrast.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare:\u003c\/strong\u003e Boat shoes worn without socks take up a lot of moisture, and moisture dries leather out. Use a conditioner or a matching brown cream every few weeks rather than waiting for the leather to look tired. Cedar trees between wears absorb what the lining has soaked up. Rinse salt water off with clean water and let the shoes dry slowly.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Barker","offers":[{"title":"6","offer_id":64187275182457,"sku":"BARKER_WALLIS_BOAT_SHOE_DARK_BROWN_6","price":135.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"6.5","offer_id":64187275215225,"sku":"BARKER_WALLIS_BOAT_SHOE_DARK_BROWN_6_5","price":135.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"7","offer_id":64187275247993,"sku":"BARKER_WALLIS_BOAT_SHOE_DARK_BROWN_7","price":135.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"7.5","offer_id":64187275280761,"sku":"BARKER_WALLIS_BOAT_SHOE_DARK_BROWN_7_5","price":135.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"8","offer_id":64187275313529,"sku":"BARKER_WALLIS_BOAT_SHOE_DARK_BROWN_8","price":135.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"8.5","offer_id":64187275346297,"sku":"BARKER_WALLIS_BOAT_SHOE_DARK_BROWN_8_5","price":135.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"9","offer_id":64187275379065,"sku":"BARKER_WALLIS_BOAT_SHOE_DARK_BROWN_9","price":135.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"9.5","offer_id":64187275411833,"sku":"BARKER_WALLIS_BOAT_SHOE_DARK_BROWN_9_5","price":135.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"10","offer_id":64187275444601,"sku":"BARKER_WALLIS_BOAT_SHOE_DARK_BROWN_10","price":135.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"10.5","offer_id":64187275477369,"sku":"BARKER_WALLIS_BOAT_SHOE_DARK_BROWN_10_5","price":135.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"11","offer_id":64187275510137,"sku":"BARKER_WALLIS_BOAT_SHOE_DARK_BROWN_11","price":135.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"12","offer_id":64187275542905,"sku":"BARKER_WALLIS_BOAT_SHOE_DARK_BROWN_12","price":135.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9017\/4329\/files\/Wallis2_437026_DarkBrownCalf_1024x600_402x_a30af798-a6bc-455f-a0a0-babd8b746e17.jpg?v=1786083093","url":"https:\/\/english-brands.co.uk\/products\/barker-wallis-boat-shoe-dark-brown","provider":"English Brands","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
