About Barker Shoes
Styles and collections
Men can choose from brogues, Oxfords, Derbys, loafers, monk straps, boots and trainers, along with shoes for weddings. The women's side covers brogues, boots, loafers and trainers. Beyond the core range sit three named lines: Handcrafted, International and BarkerTech, the last designed with extra comfort in mind. Pairs are made from European calf leather and often finished with antique creams and polishes. A Goodyear welted pair can be refurbished instead of replaced, which is why the brand pitches its shoes as a long-term buy.
