From the brand: Cardigan 5, a classic full brogue, country-style derby with wing tip design and punching detail. Robust storm-welts, chunky Vibram rubber sole, top eyelets and bold broguing speak of a Derby style that means business! A Rough-out suede version is the perfect winter-ready match, set to take on the elements.
Rough-out suede is a material that ‘roughs-up’ during wear. Over time, it takes on a rugged, worn aesthetic which makes it our most casual material in the collection. If left uncared for, you will find it lightens and continues to become rougher in look and feel. However, rough-out suede very much benefits from an annual covering in dubbin to uphold its water resistance. An application of dubbin will also darken down the leather, and reduce its rough appearance bringing back some ‘newness’.
When ordered online, all rough-out suede shoes/boots are pre-treated before they are shipped. If in store, you can also speak to our staff about caring for rough-out suede.
