Henri Papillion

Magnificent in its shape and structure, this masterpiece defies change and time. One of the most popular choices in our bespoke Frederic Portier Oxford collection, Henri Papillion shoes have a rounded tip, a regular steep to go with any clothing, and they give a gentleman more room to relax his feet across the sole. It has been carefully designed and manufactured such that it maintains the delicate touch of the craftsman. The finished product, with its leather sole, is archetypal, and incorporates a seamless leather stitching, which runs over the toe, allowing the shoes to stand out as perfect evening wear. It exalts the business look, making sure the outfit is the evening’s highlight. With fewer details on the shoes, it is true to the famous adage, “less is more.”

The lace-up vamp, along with the leather piping of the shoe, creates a sleek look. The leather insole is padded and the side goring is elasticised, with a Goodyear welt construction. The Frederic Portier – Henri Papillion is a perfect-fit, hand-carved, and long-lasting shoe, making it an easy choice for a look that exudes brilliance and success.
