Description

Introducing the Barker Athlone Derby Brogue – a masterpiece of craftsmanship that seamlessly combines timeless style with modern comfort. With its high quality deer and calf leather, meticulous stitching and perforated patterns, it pays homage to the rich history of derby brogue shoes. Available in two colours, Black Calf/Deer and Redwood/Cervo.


The combination of a classic leather sole paired with a leather forepart ensures durability, flexibility, and a secure grip – perfect for navigating both city streets and formal occasions.
The Barker Athlone is a testament to the expertise of our artisans in Northamptonshire, a region renowned for its shoemaking heritage. Each pair is meticulously crafted by skilled hands, preserving the time-honoured traditions that define British shoemaking.


The derby brogue style, with its open lacing system, has a storied history dating back to the 19th century. Originally designed for sporting and outdoor activities, the distinctive brogue perforations were not only aesthetic but also practical, allowing water to drain easily. Today, the derby brogue has evolved into a versatile and sophisticated footwear choice, blending tradition with contemporary style.
