measure 4" across the widest part of outer sole
A handsome pair of longwing oxfords by the Brooks Brothers English line -- made in England -- a truly vintage pair from over a quarter of a century ago. They are made in England and although the soles do have some wear, they are in overall excellent condition and a remarkable find for the gentleman who loves the truly authentic traditional look. The size is 420 A, which I believe most closely correlates to US men’s size 9 slender or narrow, but please check these measurements: They measure 4" across the widest part of the outer sole and just over 12" from heel to toe on outer sole.
They are style Surrey, or part number 952. They are in good vintage condition with some mild but general wear from previous use, some wear to soles, but as you will see from the photos the insides are excellent and the cotton is nice and soft beneath both tongues. The laces are excellent.
