The Cameron is NPS's four-eyelet Gibson, which is to say a derby: its lace facings are sewn over the vamp instead of beneath it, so the shoe opens wide and closes around whatever foot is put into it. Four eyelets rather than five keeps the lacing short and the throat low, and the whole shape reads relaxed next to an Oxford.
In acorn, that relaxed quality goes further still. Acorn is the lightest of the leathers we stock this model in, a tan-leaning brown that shows the difference between a well-fed toe and a neglected one very plainly. Polish it and the colour deepens unevenly at the toe and heel, which is how a tan shoe earns its character. Pair it with denim, cord, olive chinos or a flannel trouser. It is not a black-tie shoe and does not pretend to be.
NPS have been making shoes at Wollaston in Northamptonshire since 1881, when the business was founded as a workers' co-operative. It stayed one for well over a century, until a buyout in 2006 put it into private ownership. The same factory also produces Solovair.
