Taylor Stitch Ridge Moc in Golden Brown Waxed Suede

Whilst we best know Taylor Stitch for their clothing here at The Coolector, they do make the occasional foray into footwear and it’s always a worthwhile expedition as their latest release, the Ridge Mod in Golden Brown Waxed Suede, admirably illustrates. If you’re looking to get the perfect pair of spring / summer shoes sorted early, this will definitely be ticking plenty of the right boxes. The Ridge Moc from Taylor Stitch is undergoing pre-funding as we speak in their workshop which means you can get your hands on a pair for a bargain price right now.

Priced at $238 during this pre-sale (down from the final price of $298), these Taylor Stitch Ridge Moc in Golden Brown Waxed Suede represent a bit of a bargain as we speak so move fast to secure your pair before the price goes up. These superb looking shoes are proudly built by hand in León, Mexico – which is well known to be the shoemaking capital of the world. Taylor Stitch’s partner tannery holds a Gold Rating from the Leather Working Group for its commitment to strict labour oversight and Responsible manufacturing practices, including cutting edge technologies to reduce water and power usage – so this is footwear you can feel good about wearing.

DEVILISHLY DAPPER FOOTWEAR

Taylor Stitch undoubtedly know what they’re doing when it comes to crafting stylish, sophisticated menswear but, as you can plainly see, this transfer effortlessly to their footwear endeavours as well. The Ridge Moc is a classic moc toe shoe with the hard-wearing craftsmanship to keep you sure-footed for a lifetime of adventures and experiences. The waxed suede construction will patina beautifully as wear and tear reveals the natural nep of the leather, which delivers a rugged look that’s uniquely your own in the process. 

The Taylor Stitch Ridge Moc in Golden Brown Waxed Suede (pre-order price of $238) are wonderfully comfortable courtesy of the fact that Taylor Stitch have fastened the Vibram lug sole with a weather resistant Goodyear welt. This is important because it’s the gold standard in footwear construction and renders The Ridge 100% resoleable if required. This first class footwear is finished off with hex eyelets and ultra-durable leather laces, meaning that The Ridge Moc is designed for the miles ahead, and built For The Long Haul.

Whereas the majority of suedes need to be babied and brushed, Taylor Stitch’s Responsibly-sourced 4-oz waxed version is ready for the elements, right out of the box which makes this footwear all the more impressive in our opinion here at Coolector HQ. The Ridge Moc is crafted by hand to the specifications of master craftsmen in León, México and is fitted with a Vibram lug sole and luxurious leather laces. A soft pigskin lining makes The Ridge more breathable and keeps your dogs from barking when the workday stretches into overtime.
