Today we have this expensive pair of Gieves & Hawkes boots, the rare Buckshot brogues infact. I loved repairing these boots as Gieves & Hawkes are a famous establishment going back years from saville row. We did a full restoration including new leather soles, brass toe plates and an artisan sole design.
