Barkers Valiant is a hand painted brogue, in striking yellow and green. Exclusive to Bowhill & Elliott, we have daringly paired the colours as a firm favourite for all the ‘Canaries’ out there, or the gentleman who just likes to have a bit of fun with his footwear. Bowhill & Elliott ‘s rich heritage within the footwear industry has always led us to appeal to niche markets, with Barkers exclusive hand painted exclusive brogue the ideal style to compliment our wonderful velvet slippers.
BOWHILL AND BROGUES
Brogues and the English countryside go hand in hand, and with Bowhill & Elliott perfectly placed in the heart of Norfolk, brogues have always held a special place in our long history. Originally designed for men who worked the land, the word brogue derives from Gaelic, simply meaning – bog. The punched holes that make the style a brogue would be perforated, allowing water to drain when working in marshland or, bogs! The brogue punching may no longer perforate the leather, and although still fully fit for purpose out in the wild, it has become a true English classic regardless of the terrain.
Bowhill & Elliott have worked with Barker shoes for many years, where our own legendary Roger Jury started his shoemaking apprenticeship at the Barker factory in Earls Barton.
