The Abbey Sneaker is the third addition to Crown Northampton’s Hand Stitch Collection. A casual style that’s perfect for warmer weather and feels comfortable from the off, only getting better with wear and age.
As with the other styles in the Hand Stitch Collection, the Abbey sits on a sidewall-stitched Lactae Hevea outsole and cork-filled midsole. Instead of the black English calf found on many historic examples, our sneakers are constructed using Shell Cordovan from the Horween tannery.
While we’ve kept the exterior minimal, in keeping with our design philosophy, the Abbey is packed full of intricate construction details. A baby calf leather toe puff sandwiched neatly inside a split in the upper to add structure, French bound edges to keep things nice and tidy, and our signature hand-sewn stitching across the throatline for strength.
