The Scorcher May Version
These are a combination of 2 popular styles. The Scorcher has been a great shoe and liked by lots of people trying to find a early 70s style Loafers, i.e nice and square fronted. The May was a Box Top shoe we did and this also went down really well with customers. You can guess what someone said, when are the Scorchers getting the Box Top / Weave effect on them. So here they are , yes we are supper chuffed
Scorcher >>>>
They are based exactly like the late 60s early 70s one. They have leather uppers, and man made sole, which is just like the ones we used as our source.
The leather is super soft on these and will not take hardly anytime to wear in.
We think they are great, but hear it direct from someone who should know.

“WOW they are so comfortable & do look the mutts nuts. Much better in the flesh than pics.
I wore them round the shops for a few hours today & they have already started to take shape on the fronts
On the leather, its top quality in the fact it’s stiff but easy to wear ( no blister so far ) im happy ?
Size wize im an 11 & these are 11s……& they fit me ok, a bit loose but thats how i like my shoes to fit, so you may need to go down a size if you after a tight fitting shoe.
For the money you are getting a very good quality shoe that looks just as good as the 70s frank wrights of yester-year today.
?
Now im saving for a black pair”
SIZING
In terms of Sizing they are generous, meaning go down, not up, if unsure. These will grow up to 1/4 of inch after about 6 hours. When trying on please allow 15 mins for your foot to heat the shoes a bit, this will make the leather supple and comfy very quickly.
Sizes 6 – 12
Also in Oxblood.
Mens Sizing
We use the following size conversions. Please be aware that different designs are designed to be bigger than others. We try our best on the product page to mention sizing.
Men’s Sizes
| UK | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 |
| Euro | 40 | 41 | 42 | 43 | 44 | 45 | 46 |
| US | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 |
Please Note that are shoes are made mainly in Spain & Portugal and Euro to UK Conversion means that the shoes normally come up a little big. The reason is that a 43, is more like 9 and 1/4.

Have these in Oxblood so had to have them in Black,they are lovely shoes.And as for the man made sole,absolutely not a problem for me.
Paul Ruthven –
These are the best yet. I own original Frank Wrights, and these are up there! Superb shoes, and the man-made soles are as per the original FW’s.

RE: SCORCHER TASSEL LOAFER
WITH BOX TOPS / WHY DO
WE NEED A MAN-MADE SOLE?
I’’ve been a fan of Mod Shoes for years and have many pairs of shoes and loafers and many of your Gabicci top; but I cannot condone buying a pair of loafers with a man- made sole.
Are you thinking of off-shoring your operation to Asia? You’ll end up like Ben Sherman a sad facsimile of what they once were.
Don’t go down this path.
If you bring out the Scorcer Loafers with Box Top apron with a leather sole made in Spain or Italy, I will definitely be buying a few pairs!
Andrew Lindsay –
I have several pairs of old Frank Wright shoes with man-made soles, and sometimes it’s difficult to find parts for them. As a boutique shoemaker, we purchase materials in smaller quantities compared to companies like Adidas, which produce hundreds of thousands of shoes. Occasionally, we get lucky with sourcing materials, but this time we weren’t as fortunate.
These shoes are made in the same factory as the Shelbys and are crafted to a very high standard, just like many of our other shoes produced in Northern Portugal. We’ve also been making the Scorcher for a few years now, and you’re only the second person to mention this issue. Honestly, I expected more feedback on the leather, but surprisingly, we haven’t received much. I apologize if the shoe isn’t to your satisfaction, but many pairs have already sold.”
