Rosewood II: What's changing
This new Rosewood is a subtle evolution. You don’t change an icon. The overall balance is near perfection, thanks to the introduction of a ‘claque’ (vamp) construction rather than a ‘plastron’ (shield) design.

Richelieu “Full Brogue”: The Art of Perforation
A Heritage Revisited
The perforated model in all its splendor, so very British, especially in this beautiful rounded shape. This well-balanced chocolate brown is enhanced by a floral toe (the “flower of the male”?) which, on the toe cap, creates a supremely elegant pattern. Suitable for any occasion.
The End of the Dictates
Of course, the codes of masculine elegance once (pre)scribed that the more perforations a shoe had, the more casual it was considered. But that was then.
Today, the full brogue is synonymous with absolute versatility: hosting, dining out, even getting married in a Brogue Oxford without batting an eye. Tweed or flannel suits in winter, fine linen in summer—its four-piece construction ensures impeccable support and a sleek silhouette that fears no comparison. The same goes for our double monk straps, for that matter…
Technical Specifications
- Style: Four-piece Oxford, Adelaide type (the “U”-shaped seam around the facing).

- Leather: Chocolate brown full-grain calfskin, selected for its suppleness and the patina it will develop over time.

A Word from the Shoemaker
“If you were to own just one pair of brown shoes with real character, this would be it. It combines the authority of the Oxford with the flair of the brogue.”

Description
The leather: A safe bet
We use a smooth, chocolate brown French leather with a very subtle patina. It has a beautiful depth of color that will age gracefully over time. Indeed, the chrome tanning process allows for a slow evolution of the patina.
Leather sole, for the purists
Yes, rubber soles are all the rage. But such a beautiful model deserves to be mounted on a thin and elegant leather sole. The Goodyear welt construction guarantees exceptional durability.
The advantages:
– Durability
– Long-lasting stability
– Resoleable
