Johnston & Murphy
Cap-Toe Oxford
“Optima”
Circa 1995
Euro 440

This Johnston & Murphy’s version of this classic shoe dates from the 1990s and closely resembles the chisel lasts (Leist) of the mid 1950’s. Somewhat flared at the line of the small toe, it reminds one of a custom made shoe and promises to be unusually comfortable. Do not compare this to J.&M.’s current production; this is a superior shoe from the last period of the firm’s proud history, their top line, the “Crown Aristocraft”.

This model is very appropriate for business wear, and ideal for evening up to and including black or white tie.  This sleek and serious model never fails to draw compliments for its utter simplicity and elegance.
