  • WINDSOR

    WINDSOR

    $239

    WINDSOR gives the black cap-toe boot a subtly more articulated expression. Fine perforations edge the toe seam and selected panel borders, while the laced shaft preserves a strong, uninterrupted vertical line. The detail remains tonal against the dark leather. A composed formal silhouette for the patron who wants character within the established language of black,…

    BALMORAL

    $239

    BALMORAL gives brogue detailing a vertical expression. Cognac-brown leather rises from the sweeping wingtip to a clean ankle shaft, with darker shading lending definition to the seams and toe. The laced front keeps the design formal and composed. This is the dress boot as a continuation of tailoring: warm in colour, deliberate in line.

    VERSAILLES

    $239

    VERSAILLES gives the dress boot a more directional line. A long, pointed toe extends a clean black leather upper, while sparse panel work and a defined heel keep the profile precise.

Questions

Before you commission

Will my pair match the swatch exactly?

No two hand patinas are identical. The swatch shows the tone; the depth, grain and shading are unique to your pair. That variation is the point of a hand finish.

What does “25 pairs per finish” mean?

Each patina tone is limited to 25 numbered pairs. Your number (for example 07/25) appears on your authenticity card.

How do I care for a patina?

Use a neutral or matching cream and a soft cloth. Avoid heavy coloured polish, which hides the layered colour. Full guidance comes with your pair.

Which size should I choose?

Use the same PK/EU/US/cm chart as every DEMOC pair. If you are between sizes or have a wider foot, choose the Wide / High instep fit.
