Once championed by posh Oxford academics and English dandies, Grenson and Craig Green’s spiffy upcoming collaboration give Oxford brogues a cool new look. Reworked with punchy clips, studs and poppers, the triple welt shoes will be released on Dec. 5.
“Craig is possibly the UK’s most respected menswear designer over the last decade and we are very proud to have worked with him for most of that time,” said Tim Little, Grenson’s creative director and chief executive officer.
“For our 10 year anniversary, Craig designed a beautiful triple welt that showcases both his incredible creativity and Grenson shoe making heritage in equal measure,” he added.
The revamped Oxfords celebrate British heritage and craftsmanship, made in Grenson’s Northamptonshire, England factory using polished Bookbinder leather stitched, punched, and gimped. The shoes will be released in two color ways, black and chocolate brown
“Working with Grenson over the past decade has been an absolute privilege. Their consistent dedication to craftsmanship and innovation continues to inspire me,” said designer Craig Green, MBE.
The shoes debuted at Craig Green’s spring 2025 show, which was a loving tribute to the designer’s father, who had died recently.
The show highlighted the bonds between father and child and the expectations that each has of the other. The result was a blend of masculine and feminine, with nods to rugby, cars and grown-up clothes in a palette full of pastels, loose shapes and layers.
Coming in men’s and women’s sizes, the shoes are priced at $890. They will be available to purchase in Grenson stores and online at grenson.com.
