The Preston Shoe in Black Tartan
All tartans are plaid, but not all plaids are tartan. The Preston Shoe in Black Tartan gives the heritage pattern a distinctive setting, framed by full grain black leather and intricate brogue detailing. Sweeping wingtip lines and a perforated toe medallion draw on classic menswear, while richly textured tartan brings depth and individuality to the design. Traditional details, brought together with an unmistakably TAFT point of view.
Built with Blake stitch construction and a German-engineered cushioned insole, the Preston pairs considered craftsmanship with comfort underfoot. Wear it with a dark suit to give the pattern room to stand out, or tailored trousers and a fine knit for a more relaxed expression. A shoe for those who appreciate tradition and make it their own.
