Herring Purcell II is an evolution of the original onto a sleeker last that better suits the high-end features of this shoe. Purcell II is part of the Classic Elite collection that offers some of the detailing you would expect to find in our Premier range but at a much lower price. How can we do that? Well, we use fair pricing and brilliant european factories, combined with our eye for detail and design. Purcell features a classic last shape that will never be out of fashion, gorgeous full-grain leathers and closed-channel sole stitching. All of these are premium features you would not expect at this entry point, and of course, they are Goodyear welted so they can be repaired. Please note that all closed-channel stitching will eventually become visible with wear as the leather is worn away.
