I just received mine yesterday, so timely video. I too was struck by how comfortable these are right away. I've gone through the ringer breaking in British shoes before, and these won't require that painful experience at all. The last is slightly elongated from what I'm used to, but that says more about what I'm used to than it does about the 348 last. These are the coolest suede Derby's I've ever seen. Pure British Town class. My wife was almost as excited about them as I was, which is significant. Little does she know what I paid for them, because if she found that out then we'd be heading straight to the women's shoe department at our local Nordstrom -- and then she'd be even more excited about my purchase of these... Highly recommend for anyone considering these, if you can get a pair as they are selling out quickly.
I have the same Church's Pierce wore in TWINE. Cost £300. They are quite heavy so goes with jeans or smart trousers. Not great for running in but look good.
Northamptonian here and Bond fan, great video David. Let’s not forget another great Northampton shoe company Church’s provided Pierce’s shoes for the World is not Enough. I don’t suppose you have the Presley shoes in your collection?
WOW These look fantastic! Justin time as my chukka boots have worn through the bottom!! Hopefully I can get a pair before they’re all gone… thanks for the video! As always GREAT JOB!
Do you know what I think these would go great with? The Massimo Alba corduroy suit. Nothing like missing and matching Bond items from different films that work.
My C and J rough out Suede Coniston boots are my favourite boots, the more i wear them, the better patina gets. I live 20 minutes away from C and J, if in the area well worth visiting the factory shop for a bargain as is Trickers
I bought Church's shoes in 2007 for £300.00. Advertised as the shoes in TWINE. Strong, heavy & still look good. Goes with jeans & smart trousers. They are buckle shoes which I am not a big fan of. Comfortable but not suitable for jumping around in The closest thing Church's do to it now cost over £900.00!
They look very nice but I might pass on these. I need a pair of Islay boots and Sussex derby’s first. Can’t get them all but I could put them on my wishlist for Christmas and hope 😂
A very nice shoe, A fan of the brand, have a pair of C&J Grasmere Derby with the older Dainite Sole. Cost a fortune but worth it, Extremely well made and the word "Sturdy" doesn't quite cover it, you could wear these as industrial work shoes. they may even outlast me.
fantastic shoes...cant skip out on a pair of Crockett & Jones when they offer a special edition like this. Very comfortable...agree on the soles - own two pairs with the City Soles and they are superb.
Dang, these are beautiful. I’ve got the chukka variant so I’ll skip but definitely a nice pair. Best wishes and a pleasant fate with your Bond girl! 🫶🏼

Haha. Your wife must know mine!!!
Fun video! Crockett & Jones is such an awesome shoe brand! FANTASTIC shoes, packaging & Bond swag!

I have seen photos of Cary Grant wearing shoes like that with a suit. Good enough for Cary, then good enough for us mere mortals.
Thanks for posting this video top quality content for every Bond fan. Goldfinger is my favourite Sean Connery movie.
Beautiful shoes, fantastic packing worth every penny!🍸
I was not aware of Crockett and Jones. Marvelous looking shoes! Thank you as always for the videos.

Excelent Shoes

I wear Crocs - Crockett & Jones. M

Aaaaah! The box! You destroyed the box! Is nothing sacred??
At a price of £925, these shoes are not for the faint hearted!
I do not like this pair of shoes... I hope you do and you will enjoy wearing them! :)

Did u see Daniel's Craig's latest clothing choices for a brand he is hawking? So sad. So antithetical to the sartorial Bond look.
Also a tip, slide the left over shoe laces to the sides for a clean look and less of a rabbit look. 🫶🏼
