The John Lobb factory is among the most renowned manufacturers in the British shoemaking hub of Northampton, a city that rose to prominence as a center of footwear production in the 17th century. Although it became part of the Hermes Group in 1976, the factory continues to uphold the traditional production process developed in the 19th century.
Technology is used, but sparingly. For instance, leather cutting is still performed by hand rather than with lasers. Instead, lasers create plastic patterns, which are handed to specialized artisans called clickers. Their title comes from the clicking sound of the knife blade hitting the cutting table. With traditional knives, they shape the leather in the old-fashioned way.
Production is carefully restricted, with only roughly 450 to 500 pairs made each week. This approach resembles bespoke work. Employees often handle many designs in a single day, instead of repeating one routine step like in typical factories. Every shoe is built with the Goodyear method, allowing the soles to be replaced without damaging the upper.
Similar to Hermes, John Lobb uses exceptional materials, particularly from premium French calfskin. Only about sixty percent is usable for uppers, while the remainder becomes minor leather goods.
The line combines iconic staples with modern updates. The classic City II model, for instance, have been given a more elegant outline. The Sennen double monks gained longer straps and a more robust foundation. The Lopez loafers, introduced in the 1950s, received subtle color and sole innovations. Newer icons include the Porth trainers and the Levah trainers, which are produced yearly in a mix of colors and materials.
Through its commitment to tradition and quality, John Lobb continues to be one of the pillars in English shoemaking.
