The John Lobb brand is a highly respected manufacturers in the British shoemaking hub of Northampton, a city that rose to prominence as a center of footwear production 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.

Technology is used, but sparingly. Specifically, leather cutting is still performed by hand rather than with lasers. Instead, lasers create plastic patterns, which are handed to clickers. Their title comes from the distinctive “click” of the knife touching the cutting table. With traditional knives, they shape the leather in the old-fashioned way.

Production is limited, with only 450–500 pairs made each week. This approach resembles bespoke work. Employees switch between twenty shoe types in a day, instead of repeating one routine step like in typical factories. Every shoe is built with Goodyear welting, allowing a leaky sole to be removed without damaging the upper.

In line with Hermes, John Lobb chooses only the finest leather, particularly from premium French calfskin. Only slightly more than half of the leather is appropriate for main shoe parts, while the remainder becomes smaller accessories.

The range combines heritage designs with modern updates. The City II black Oxfords, for instance, were slightly reshaped. The Sennen shoes gained refined buckles and a reinforced sole. The Lopez loafers, introduced in 1950, received subtle color and sole innovations. Newer icons include the Porth model and the Levah sneakers, which are offered annually in various colors and materials.

Through its dedication to craftsmanship, John Lobb stands as one of the pillars in world-class shoemaking.
