When we consider quintessential British style, it's challenging not to envision the more formal aspects. For many years, loafers, boat shoes, and boots have traditionally been associated with the dressier sections of our wardrobes. However, in recent years, streetwear has embraced these styles, and this development has not gone unnoticed. One of the brands at the forefront of this exploration into new territory is DUKE + DEXTER, who has now collaborated with Percival for a limited edition loafer release.
Since its inception in 2015, DUKE + DEXTER has managed to shake up the norms of what one might consider to be luxury footwear, and in essence, has subverted classic British menswear as we know it. Now, in this latest collaboration with fellow compatriot Percival, the duo has readied a pairing of loafer styles, each inspired by the traversing of the British garden.
Embracing the elegant and refined loafer silhouette that DUKE + DEXTER has become renowned for, the 'Rattan' and 'Nettle' shades grace the exterior of each shoe, respectively. Every pair is meticulously crafted by hand in England, showcasing exquisite leather and suede uppers that rest upon a sleek black sole. For those interested in adding the DUKE + DEXTER x Percival loafer to their collection, it is now available for purchase on Percival's website.
