Crockett & Jones And James Bond film Goldfinger

Crockett & Jones, the esteemed British shoemaker established in 1879 in Northampton, commemorates the 60th anniversary of the James Bond film Goldfinger with a refined limited-edition footwear collection. This release pays homage to the enduring elegance of 007's style, introducing two meticulously crafted designs that blend cinematic legacy with artisanal excellence.

Highbury 2: A Suede Derby with Cinematic Heritage

The Highbury 2 is a modern reinterpretation of the suede Derby shoes James Bond wore during the iconic car chase scene in Goldfinger. Crafted from fine English calf suede, this three-eyelet Derby features Crockett & Jones' signature 'City' rubber sole, offering durability and comfort. Manufactured in their Northampton factory using the classic Last 348, known for its chiselled form, the Highbury 2 embodies mid-60s style with contemporary sophistication. Each pair is fully leather-lined, showcasing an all-black interior with a silver-foiled logo, and is presented in exclusive 007 packaging, complete with hand-made shoe trees and a chrome shoehorn, all embossed with the iconic 007 logo.

Albert Slipper: Velvet Elegance with Bond's Coat of Arms

Complementing the Highbury 2, the collection also features the Albert Slipper, a luxurious velvet slipper adorned with the original Bond family coat of arms. This design draws inspiration from the traditional Albert slippers of the Victorian era, named after Prince Albert. The slippers are crafted with a whole-cut vamp and feature a sumptuous quilted lining, epitomizing comfort and elegance. The Bond family coat of arms, first appearing in On Her Majesty’s Secret Service (1969), includes the family motto 'Orbis non sufficit', meaning 'The world is not enough', adding a touch of cinematic history to the design.

Both the Highbury 2 and the Albert Slipper are available for purchase through Crockett & Jones' official website and select retailers. These limited-edition pieces offer fans and connoisseurs an opportunity to own a piece of James Bond's sartorial legacy, blending timeless design with the brand's renowned craftsmanship.
