The Kilsby is defined by its stitched apron design and heavy-set derby quarters. Built on the legendary 4497s last—traditionally reserved for our iconic country boots—it brings a commanding, high-walled presence to a shoe silhouette. This choice of last delivers a generous, accommodating fit through the toe box and maximum stability underfoot, making it ideal for pairing with heavy denim, corduroy, or seasonal casual tailoring.
