The John Lobb brand is a highly respected manufacturers in the British shoemaking hub of Northampton, a city that rose to prominence as a shoemaking capital in the seventeenth century. Although it became part of the Hermes Group in 1976, the factory is dedicated to preserving the craft techniques developed in the Victorian era.
Although machinery exists, tradition dominates. For example, the laser is not applied directly to the hides. Instead, plastic patterns are made, which are handed to clickers. Their title comes from the clicking sound of the knife touching the cutting table. With traditional knives, they carve the leather by hand.
Production is intentionally small, with only roughly 450 to 500 pairs made each week. This approach gives the sense of one-of-a-kind production. Employees switch between twenty shoe types in a day, instead of repeating one routine step like in mass-production plants. Every shoe is built with Goodyear welted technology, allowing a leaky sole to be removed without damaging the upper.
In line with Hermes, John Lobb sources the best-quality hides, particularly from young French calf hides. Only about sixty percent is suitable for cutting, while the remainder becomes smaller accessories.
The collection combines heritage designs with subtle refinements. The City II Oxfords, for instance, were slightly reshaped. The Sennen model gained elongated straps and a reinforced sole. The Lopez loafers, introduced in the 1950s, were updated with new colors and rubber soles. Newer icons include the Porth trainers and the Levah sneakers, which are offered annually in various colors and materials.
Through its dedication to craftsmanship, John Lobb remains a defining name in the British footwear industry.
