Hugh Capet

Frederic Portier – Hugh Capet was one of the early and mighty kings of France. Inspired by the ferocious king, our Hugh Capet Derby shoe is made from a combination of two of the finest leathers – calf and bark-tanned. The shoe has been hand-stitched by the highly skilled artisans who understand sportsmanship like it is their second nature. The design of the shoe was once regarded as the ‘town shoe’; today, it is the epitome of class and sophistication.

Hugh Capet is neither too dressy, nor under; it is just the right amount of fervour for any occasion. The Derby shoe is created from the finest polished leather to match a modern man’s sleek and tidy appearance. With a refined chisel toe, the contemporary touch of the design on the silhouette and the lace-up detail makes it a highly-regarded choice for a perfect formal pair. The construction of the shoe is strong and the lining is made from leather to meet the expectations of a true gentleman.

This signature piece of Frederic Portier shoe is a fine choice for dressing down for a more casual setting, without going out of style. Hugh Capet can also be paired with office attire to make a perfect entry as it oozes versatility and unparalleled valour – true to the name of a king.
