Tricker's

I've been looking for a good brogue boot for some time, and had been aware of Tricker's reputation as making wonderful shoes. It is very hard to find them in the US, however, and regardless of source the cost is always exorbitant so it was wonderful to find perfect new stock here on Sierra. Ordering and shipping process was fast and efficient, the boots well packaged and as high quality as I had hoped for.

These are similar to the Woodstock (which I also own), but on a slightly slimmer last, which makes them a bit more formal. Still have the chunky leather sole. There is simpler construction along the heel, with less overlay, than the Woodstock. The bellow tongue is slightly different as well (doesn't come up over the eyelets on the inside like the Woodstock). All-in-all a nice clean look. I normally wear a size 10, so I got the UK size 9, which fit perfectly with medium thickness socks. This is a simple, but very well-made shoe that can be worn with work clothes, even a suit, as well as jeans.

One of the best shoes you can buy. Has real leather construction throughout. This shoe will outlive you.

This is a fine product. They will probably outlast the wearer! Heavy, country brogue that looks good and is not phased by bad condidtions. Wear them, don't keep them "special occasions". I found the UK 10.5 matched US 11.

Fine English workmanship compares with the best quality hand-made US shoes at a great price.

These are built on a different last than the Derby Brogue boots and have a lower volume, which means that they fit fine with heavy socks but will not accept an insole. The boots themselves have a substantial welt and the pebble grain leather is very rugged, although stiff initially. They look much better than they do in the STP photos!

These are fantastic. Even if you are not a huge fan of English shoes (for example, if you are more the Italian style guy), one or two pairs of Tricker's shoes should really be a part of your wardrobe. Yes, they are classic English (these are NOT a featherweight shoe), but they speak volumes about your taste and sophistication, especially in the business world. Having one of their wingtip broughs or captoe oxfords will definately make you stand out from the crowd and subtly but clearly mark you as a cut above the rest. Also, some of their other offerings are fantastic. I have a pair of their Chukka boots that are FABULOUS - just the thing for business casual, upgrading a casual look with a real pop of style, or going out. One thing - some of their shoes (although not these) feel better if you put in a small insert (I had to in the Chukka boots) for extra cushioning, but it's no big deal. These are shoes that will easily last you 30-40 years, always be in style, and feel / look / wear just great!!!

The espresso won't pass for black--not sure if the other reviewer owns a different shade from mine. They're dark brown. Beautiful shoes, primarily because the quality is so high. Inspiring but not much style. Overall, though, it's great to own them.

Classical shoe. What shoes are meant to be.

This is a heavy chunky shoe of top-notch quality. Can be worn at work, but also on an evening out. I wear a size 10 US, and the 9.5 fit me perfectly. Sylish shoes in a subtle way. The burnished expresso is a nice, dark color. These are my new favorite pair of shoes and should last forever.
