AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
John Lobb UK Size 6 E (EU Size 40) Becketts Prestige Collection Plain-Toe Oxford Black
The masterful construction of this model is revealed in a calm, flowing design that combines absolute precision craftsmanship with an unobtrusive lightness. As a plain-toe Oxford from the Prestige line of the John Lobb manufacture, it embodies that rare crossover where ready-to-wear footwear assumes the aura of pure bespoke tailoring. The demanding production of this collection culminates in the hand-sculpted waist of the Goodyear welted leather sole, which forms the solid foundation for the 8000 last.
The architectural clarity of the model is particularly evident in the sophisticated cut. The side panels are crafted as wholecut quarters from a single piece of leather, so the heel section completely dispenses with the usual seam. This pure surface is accentuated solely by the characteristic side seams running diagonally downwards.
The naming convention of the house is also rooted in a clear, often very British tradition. The name Becketts is no exception here, but rather a deliberate homage to the famous eponymous curve combination of the Silverstone racing circuit. The flowing, double side seams of the shoe trace these fast, dynamic lines on the leather. It is exactly this subtle interplay of British heritage and architectural ambition that gives the model its unmistakable presence.
Size: UK Size 6 E (EU Size 40 / US Size 7)
Total outer length: approx. 28.5 cm
Inner length: approx. 26.5 cm
Width: approx. 10 cm
Leather / Outer condition: The upper leather presents itself in a remarkably well-kept condition, testifying to a great appreciation for the material. The dense structure and the deep shine of the leather are wonderfully preserved, while the minimal creases fall absolutely naturally and do not disrupt the cohesive aesthetic. Thanks to consistent storage on matching shoe trees, the upper shows excellent shape retention without any loss of tension. Inside, this impression continues uncompromisingly: the leather insole and the fine lining prove to be extremely clean and intact.
Heel / Sole: The entire bottom construction is in the original condition of the manufacture. The heel is in excellent shape; particularly noteworthy are the original rubber corners, which show almost no wear and prove the careful use of the shoe. The Goodyear welted leather sole presents itself as consistently solid, with partial, superficial wear at the front tips of the soles. The surface of the leather is remarkably free from the usual inclusions of rough road surfaces, testifying to mindful use primarily restricted to indoors.
Miscellaneous: The John Lobb Becketts in black leather manifests the perfect balance of historically evolved construction and architectural clarity.
Original box and shoe bags are not included.
Seller's Story
Welcome to my page for premium first- and second-hand men’s shoes.
“Chance favors the prepared mind.”
Louis Pasteur (1822–1895)
The idea of offering exceptional and carefully selected men’s shoes arose from a deep personal passion and long-standing experience with this fundamental element of the classic wardrobe. For me, a masterfully crafted shoe is far more than a mere object of utility – it is the visible expression of individuality, character, and refined taste.
The focus is on traditional craftsmanship, excellent materials, and the enduring quality of timeless classics. Let yourself be inspired by this fascination and discover true treasures of the first- and second-hand segment in my shoe showcase, which impress with uncompromising quality and character.
