From the brand: Mr. Hare 'Fitzgerald' Black Eel Skin, Calf & Patent Leather Oxford — Autumn/Winter 2011, Made in Italy
The 'Fitzgerald' is Mr. Hare at its most technically ambitious — a shoe that layers three distinct leather finishes across a single Oxford construction, each material chosen for its specific visual and tactile contribution to the whole. From the Autumn/Winter 2011 collection, this is a piece that rewards the wearer who understands that the finest shoes are built from the finest materials, handled with the greatest care.
The construction is a study in considered contrast: an exotic black eel skin quarter — its naturally ridged, scaled surface providing a distinctive texture that sets it apart from any conventional leather — meets a smooth calf leather mid-section, clean and refined. The toe cap is black patent leather, its mirror-like shine providing a formal, high-gloss finish that anchors the shoe's silhouette. A beige leather lining completes the interior, soft and warm against the foot. Made in Italy with the precision that Mr. Hare's ethos demands.
Please note: both shoes have minor scuffs on the sole. The right shoe has experienced minor creasing on the leather and the original box is damaged. These are reflected in the pricing.
