A Spanish brand, although there is 1707 alongside the brand name, but the history is totally made up. Duke of Berwick was a Spanish general ruling Almansa, the capital of shoemaking in Spain.
The brand claims it is based in Madrid, what is the point when only the headquarter is somewhere?
To be fair, there are some good things about Berwick:
- Own factory, the name is Milan Classic S.A.
- Leather are all from great tanneries, Du Puy, D’Annonay and C.F Stead, Premium Grade uses JR sole. Rubber sole is Dainite.
- Classic models.
The website also has introduction of the lasts. The only bad part is too many.
Let me collect its models here.
Remark
I think Berwick target the customers used to choose from Loake, Herring or Cheaney. Last quantity is big however the fineness is not very impressive.
曾经看过一段他家工厂视频，非常现代化，一切有条不紊。然后看到他家的鞋，真是惨不忍睹。不过价格很好，入门的话可以试试。
他们在国内的总代找到我，希望我能代理。所以这篇以前写的文章，我又进行了更新。
仔细地思考了一下，大概率应该是不做的。
性价比真不错，主流皮革厂，Premium级的，JR底内缝线的，价格定在2200-2300人民币，这个Meermin也没做到。普通线的我根本没兴趣。
放弃最主要的原因，还是鞋子美学上比较欠缺，款式是都很规矩，这个我是认同的。
