Loake shoes are the Rolls Royce of men's shoes.
They are custom made, well fitting, highly good-looking and very comfortable.
It is no wonder that they have been going on from more than 125 years from when three brothers: Thomas, William and John Loake started making shoes in 1880.
Now the family has covered almost five generations of shoe making; these shoes, which are made in Northamptonshire in England, are now exported to more than 30 countries.
Loake is a pleasure of wearing a really good quality shoe.
The shoes are divided in five categories, namely: Loake 1880, Evolution, Design Loake, Loake Shoemakers and L1 and also something known as the "web exclusive".
'Loake 1880' is the oldest shoe from the company.
It is extremely detailed and uses burnished calf leather and also custom made heels, leather linings and insoles.
'Evolution', as the name suggests signifies the journey of the traditional shoe to the modern age.
It is the mix of the traditional craft of the classic shoe and the ease of the modern footwear.
'Design Loake' is for you to choose best of both the worlds; here you can choose modern design for your stylishly crafted classic Loake shoe.
The next category, 'Loake shoemakers' is the very best from the craftsmen, all for you to choose from.
L1 is subtle designs for everyday wear shoes so that you experience comfort where ever you are.
The most interesting category is the 'Web Exclusive' category which lists all shoes which have been a little different from shoes presented in all the other categories.
It is a category for people who veer away from the crowd-wantedly or unwantedly.
Over all, Loake also provides for shoe care products to personally take care of each shoe you own.
On sale is a valet box containing all products of shoe care: an assorted range of brushes and cream which helps you keep your pair the way you wanted it, forever.
There is another item on display: The shoe tree.
This is helpful in keeping your shoes in shape, especially welted ones, again, forever and ever.
