The retailer’s new collection of luxury men’s footwear has been launched as Christmas fast approaches. They believe that a pair of high-quality, handmade leather shoes are the perfect gift to treat one’s partner or one’s self with, this holiday season.

While many shoppers opt for fast fashion, stocking stuffers, and novelty gifts around this time of year, Robert August believes that true quality gifts are both the more thoughtful, sustainable, and meaningful choice.

In their new Wholecut Oxford collection, they have popular recent additions like their The Wabash Ave. Wholecut Oxford No. 5541 – Artisan Hand Patina Finish. If a shopper chooses to order the model as is, they will enjoy an upper made with a Cognac to Papiro shade Hand Patina in premium calf leather and with accent navy blue flat laces. The shoe also comes with a Cognac shade hand-painted leather sole and a Savile cut, which is a sleek profile with a slight chisel on the toe.

However, should shoppers want to customize this classic Oxford, they can easily do so using Robert August’s online interface. Making shoppers the designer, the brand allows them to select both hues they prefer for their Hand Patina fade, including classics like black, brown, taupe, green, khaki, and burgundy. They can then choose their preferred laces, sole and overall profile.

All of Robert August’s new luxury Wholecut Oxfords are made by hand in their boutique workshop in Almansa, Spain, and use only the finest Spanish and Italian leather.

A spokesperson for boutique custom shoemakers said of their new Hand Patina range, “The Anticatura technique is a truly unique way to finish a shoe. Originally made famous by Olga Berluti in the 1980s, this method involves hand dyeing the leather upper to create an aged effect. It’s a specialty of Italian, French and Spanish maestro shoemakers, and takes about 8-10 hours of work per pair. Here at Robert August, we are proud to now be offering this timeless look.”
