Autumn handmade shoes

For autumn, you need a pair of shoes that are warm enough to keep the temperatures up throughout the cold autumnal temperatures and sturdy enough to withstand rain. Having a pair of chunky Derby's, Chelsea boots or loafers in your shoe collection will give you a solid foundation this autumn and late summer. It's always a good idea to vary your shoes and allow your shoes to rest between uses, preferably with shoe trees to maintain the fit. For the autumn it is also important to treat your shoes to protect them from slush, moisture and salt. Read here how to take care of your quality shoes.

Brogue derby shoes

Crockett & Jones is an English shoe manufacturer, these Derby's are an essential part of their main product range. Each pair takes eight weeks to make and involves over 200 separate steps. With its slightly chunky and open lace design, this pair of Derby's are the perfect choice for bridging the gap between smart casual and everyday wear. Click the link below to get to this Derby.

Black loafers

Whether it's spring, summer or early autumn, a pair of black loafers have become a mainstay of the Care of Carl wardrobe. Elegant, stylish and the best companion to suit trousers and denim jeans alike. Style them with a pair of concealed low socks.

Brown suede Derby's

Here, we've carefully selected another welted Derby variant, but this time in the form of a smooth brown suede Derby. The coarse latex rubber sole from Brazil's Para keeps the autumn's rainly weather at bay. Style them with a pair of folded-up selvedge jeans.

Classical Chelsea boots

The name originates from Chelsea, which was a trendy fashionable area in the 50s and 60s, and has since made the Chelsea boot a classic. With the finest calfskin upper, these Chelsea boots give a smooth and stylish feel. A slightly higher top is well suited to the season, while the elastic strap makes it easy to slip on and off. The Church's solid rubber heel is constructed of multiple layers for shock absorption and water repellency.

Split Toed Derby's

These brown Derby's come in a slightly more dressy version, thanks to a more streamlined construction and a split toe. Edward Green handmakes these shoes in the UK's shoemaking capital of Northampton.

The selection process was very easy, and navigating the online shop was as well. The product presentation and the purchasing process itself were both very simple and pleasant.

I wanted to buy a steamer from the company Steamery for travel in Europe, but the models available in the US won't work in the EU, not even with an adapter. So I had to figure out a way to get the EU compatible sent to me in the United States before my trip. I used an AI app called Claude, which helped me identify care of Carl as a potential source, and my delivery came within a matter of days. I am very pleased with my shopping experience.

Got a size 39 Contemporary fit as I’m somewhere between slim fit and contemporary. It’s quite roomy though, so I got it tailored a bit (also the sleeves). But I love the material!

Delighted with my jacket that I bought from Care of Carl. If was clearly packaged with great care and this was appreciated. It does make a difference and shows that the store also respects quality clothes and their customers too, which is a lovely personal touch. Thank you Care of Carl. James.
