Product details

Why choose the tan Ellington?

Ellington is an exquisite formal dress shoe cut from a single piece of leather creating a silhouette that is the epitome of minimalist elegance. It has the traditional closed Oxford lacing and a subtle chiselled toe shape with medallion broguing, showcasing Italian craftsmanship and attention to detail.

In our beautiful rich tan, this is a chic, contemporary choice for formal workwear and momentous occasions.

Looks good with...

The Ellington wholecut is the epitome of subtle elegance and is a perfect accessory for those occasions when style and attitude matter. Its beautiful, clean silhouette balances perfectly a sharp suit or evening wear, and the medallion broguing on the toe gives it added interest and style.

In this sophisticated shade of brown, this is a timeless shoe and can be worn with smart tailoring both during the day and on into the evening.

Stitched leather sole and stacked leather heel

The sole is stitched onto the upper using a traditional and refined Italian method called Blake stitching. This allows the sole to be easily replaced when it eventually wears but we've used a rubber insert as well, to aid longevity and grip.

There is a 25mm genuine-leather stacked heel, with brass pins and a rubber piece, again for longer wear and better grip. There is also a ‘gentleman’s corner’, a small bevel that reduces snagging of the heel on your trousers. We've even added an embossed Thomas Bird logo in the waist of the sole too, a distinctive feature of our brand.

Materials and craftsmanship

We work with the finest Italian artisan shoemakers who showcase their expertise in cutting, shaping, stitching and dying leathers, skilled crafts that have been handed down through the generations.

With attention to detail being paramount, leathers are carefully selected by weight and pliability and cut to form the pattern to fit the last. Then several stages of dying, polishing and burnishing create the depth and richness of the unique tan colour.

Italian made

Italy is renowned for the quality and style innovation of its beautiful leathers and components used in the shoemaking process.

It has a strong and well-deserved reputation as the home of fine craftsmanship and attention to detail and we want nothing less for our Thomas Bird collection.
