City Breaks

Compact and exciting, a city break is most definitely what dreams are made of at the moment. In contrast to the sleepy and monotonous days that many of us have had, a city break is all about immersing yourself in everything a new, or well loved, fast-paced city has to offer. From food to fashion and culture, we open our eyes and minds to a bustling metropolis, bursting at the seams with newness to discover. Whether you are looking forward to discovering one of our fantastic cities here in the UK, or are looking further afield to nearby Europe, our edit of sleek leather trainers and classic penny loafers is sure to keep you both chic and comfortable during long days on your feet.

With a jam-packed agenda full of discovering majestic cathedrals, exploring labyrinths of cobbled streets and decadent dinners on the cards, you want total freedom to enjoy every moment. Our selection of comfortable footwear is here to help with just that. Opt for styles crafted from premium materials, such as supple, smooth leathers and soft suedes which will ensure not only all day comfort, but reliability wear after wear. For her, try a white trainer. A contemporary classic, the white trainer offers endless styling opportunities, ideal for when one is travelling with hand luggage only. Arielle and Adrianna, for example, would pair with a floaty midi dress just as well as they would with camel tailored trousers, allowing for the ultimate in high-low dressing. For him, the St James and Stockwell trainers offer the same all-day aesthetic. Casual enough for a quick trip to the bakery for fresh croissants first thing in the morning, but classy enough for pre-dinner aperitifs, the leather trainer is a holdall multi-tasker.

Forget take-out, when on a city break, enjoying some of the city’s most fabulous restaurants is always on the agenda. On a short trip, allow yourself to indulge in whatever delicious house cuisine the local area has to offer. Whether that is the classic risotto al nero di seppia in Venice, escargot in truffle butter in Paris, or an alfresco burger in the Covent Garden Piazza, eating out is one of the best ways to immerse yourself in a new city. For relaxed yet elegant dinners, a chic and classic loafer, such as Hummingbird, will pair effortlessly with trousers and jeans, exuding premium materials and understated style. For ladies, a chunky sandal crafted from beautiful leather, such as Agnes or Dominique, will give you fresh off the runway style with the ability to stroll for post dinner gelato with ease.
