{"product_id":"john-white-bari-sneakers-jeans","title":"John White Bari Sneakers Jeans","description":"\u003cp\u003eJeans is a colour name, not a cloth. The upper is smooth leather in a mid denim blue, and that is worth saying plainly because the name suggests otherwise. The blue is clean and slightly greyed rather than bright, the laces are dyed to match, and the heel counter is picked out in a pale blue-grey napped panel a couple of tones lighter than the rest of the shoe. A tan lining turns over at the collar and shows whenever the shoe is off the foot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt solves the problem of the two default trainers. White leather commits you to keeping it white, and black leather can look like an office shoe that took a wrong turn. Blue lands between the two: tonal against denim, and the strongest colour in the outfit when it is worn with stone, grey or cream.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnderneath is a white XL Extralight rubber foam sole with a dark line along the bottom edge, which keeps the profile low and reads as modern rather than heritage. There is no branding anywhere on the upper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe John White name goes back to 1919 in Northamptonshire, though the factory closed in 1991 and the name was revived in 2000. Shoes like this are what the modern company makes: designed in Northamptonshire, made by partner makers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSizes are UK 7 to 12, in whole sizes only, on a standard F fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dust the leather off after wearing and feed it with neutral cream instead of anything tinted; matching a blue polish to a blue leather is difficult, and getting it wrong is obvious. Brush the napped heel panel with a suede brush instead of wiping it. For the sole, a cloth wrung out in warm water with a drop of washing-up liquid does the job, provided the leather stays dry.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"John White","offers":[{"title":"7","offer_id":64187440857465,"sku":"JOHN_WHITE_BARI_SNEAKERS_JEANS_7","price":140.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"8","offer_id":64187440890233,"sku":"JOHN_WHITE_BARI_SNEAKERS_JEANS_8","price":140.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"9","offer_id":64187440923001,"sku":"JOHN_WHITE_BARI_SNEAKERS_JEANS_9","price":140.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"10","offer_id":64187440955769,"sku":"JOHN_WHITE_BARI_SNEAKERS_JEANS_10","price":140.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"11","offer_id":64187440988537,"sku":"JOHN_WHITE_BARI_SNEAKERS_JEANS_11","price":140.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"12","offer_id":64187441021305,"sku":"JOHN_WHITE_BARI_SNEAKERS_JEANS_12","price":140.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9017\/4329\/files\/d5ca7c63-c104-4e1f-be5b-f684c305bc58.jpg?v=1786084614","url":"https:\/\/english-brands.co.uk\/products\/john-white-bari-sneakers-jeans","provider":"English Brands","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
