Original P204 for NBH - Perforated 18 east off white

The Original P204 is Padmore and Barnes' signature moccasin, a style the Kilkenny shoemaker has built since the 1960s and one that played a part in the early development of the Clarks Wallabee. This pair is a colourway made specifically for NBH, finished in an off white leather with an all over perforated pattern across the vamp, a lighter, warm weather take on the usual smooth or suede uppers.

Construction follows Padmore and Barnes' usual method: the shoe is hand lasted and hand stitched on their own Nature Form last, with a two eyelet bellows tongue, an elasticated lace, and a plantation crepe sole underneath. The moccasin toe seam sits low and the crepe softens with wear, so the shoe settles in around your foot over the first few weeks. The perforation adds a bit of breathability for summer, and the off white tone works well barefoot or with no show socks, worn with linen trousers, shorts, or light chinos.
