Frances is inspired by brogue style shoes, which are behind the perforated design on the t-strap. This cognac leather offers a unique patina and a sturdiness that can withstand the greatest adventures. If you're seeking a slightly more than basic school shoe with a t-bar, you've found it with Frances.

Shoes come in whole sizes only, so size up when the foot measures between sizes.
