We have been trying to do a proper Jumbo Cord shoe for years. Finding the right material has taken an age.
There are several reasons for wanting to have them made, and here they are
- We was asked lots of times
- We were even sent a pair by Matthew Deighton (hence the name) from the band Mother Earth, and also know for many other things but has played in Wellers band, and Oasis, saying “Copy These”
- George Harrison had a pair very similar
- There are numerous 60s groups wearing them
- The Rawlings that we did with DJ shoes ages ago, was meant to be Corded
- They are just so retro cool
Now as you can see we are really chuffed.
The shoes themselves we did deliberately with a man made sole, again the rawlings shoes with did with DJ i felt, looked good, but only suited a small amount of outfits, we wanted these to be more adaptable, and obviously get worn more often.
The Camel colour works well with Denim, but we also think with white jeans, trousers, shorts, Jacket & trousers for cool mod summer look. It really does depend on the rest of the outfit.
Sizes 6 – 12
Upper Cord Material
Inner Fabric
Sole Rubber
Sizing
These are slightly slim, so if you are wide, we would strongly advise going up. The style means that by going up, your feet dont look big
Made In Portugal
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.

I am vevy impressed with the quality of these shoes i purchased a pair size 6 & if they made a half size smaller i would have them ,i think they are a tad long , the fit every where else is perfect . I wear the shoes & dont think they look to long i just have more room at the end than on my loafers , also a 6 . It will not stop me buying another pair .

Originally eyeballed the Lennons but only had size 10 (I’m 9) but stated slim fit so gamble…. No good too big but noticed the Deightons with one size 9 in stock … emailed the request and return the Lennons 2 days later Deightons arrived fitted perfectly well chuffed

Well packaged parcel. Beautiful shoes and comfortable. Fit is great. Run a bit oversized in length. Choose your normal size dont go up.

Beautiful shoes. Wore for the weekend straight out of the box and comfy fit immediately. I’m a half size and found sizing down worked for me.

Top quality shoe ! Been searching for this style of corded shoe for ages and am over the moon with them , believe me if you are thinking of buying a pair you will not be disappointed !!
Damon (verified owner) –
Love these shoes so much, I went straight back and bought the last pair in my size. It is so hard to find cord shoes anyway, but to get them this good is practically impossible. I was so impressed with them when they arrived, that when I saw there was only 1 more pair in my size, I could not risk the chance I would not be able to get them again.

Bought these as they look great, day they arrived i thought I’d try them on a 25 minute walk to town, a bump around a few shops with the wife and a pint in the newly opened beer garden before the walk home.
Not a single hotspot on either foot, total comfort on the first wear and despite my worries about walking around on grass, no grass stains.
Top shoes from a top company.

I love these shoes so much!
They look great, are well made and are unbelievably comfortable to wear. You won’t want to take these off.
I have a pair in camel and a pair in blue (as well as a pair of the equally wonderful Ellliots!) These are now – along with my oxblood Monkey Boots, anyway – my very favourite shoes. Thanks guys!

As soon as I saw these they were a must have. Went up a size as recommended and glad I did. Fit like the proverbial glove and waiting for the world to open up again so I can get out and about in these beauties.

Perfect fitting in width, found them to be a little oversized in length… having said that, another top shoe and do not see anything elsewhere of the same quality.

Pucker shoes. I’m looking for suede boots from the 80s
Chris Walsh (verified owner) –
I could not be happier with these shoes and the service, I just wish that I could have got my hands on something like these years ago. They are a great casual shoe and look great with jeans, but can also be dressed up with smart trousers and shirt or knitwear.
Nigel hunt (verified owner) –
Superb shoes 👌 although I ordered the next size up from normal as have quite wide feet, they were too big and I had to reorder in my normal size but superb shoe, superb efficient service as always
Simon Gaunt (verified owner) –
Absolutely first class service with ultra fast delivery – great shoes with a n authentic retro vibe. Already looking for my next pair – thanks.
Carl Kirkham (verified owner) –
As with everything I have ordered from Modshoes the Deighton cord shoes are top class, the only problem is being in lockdown got nowhere to go to wear them. To special for just wandering round a supermarket in. So cant wait for lockdown to end and get out and show my new shoes off.
Jed Lyth (verified owner) –
Took me a while to get my pair of Deightons, so really pleased to finally get them. Another quality product from Modshoes. Great shoes that will look really smart with a Summer knit. Now, if only I could get out of house with them on 😉 Great shoes.

Fantastic looking shoe …..and look even better when they arrived and I tried them on. Straight out the box they were a perfect fit and so comfortable. They are really something special and can’t wait to get to wear them…..and then the ‘Elliot ‘ landed yesterday . Couldn’t resist them.
Great communication and delivery service from DPD too. 5 Stars all round! ….give em a go , you will not be disappointed.

Bought these in the camel and the chocolate brown (finally got my hands on a pair of your limited edition shoes!) Great casual shoe for the summer but still smart enough for more formal events. The quality, reasonable prices and service from Mod Shoes spot on as always. Had no problems ordering from outside the UK. Will be back for sure- Mod Shoes makes me wish I had more pairs of feet!
Mick Eardley (verified owner) –
Have these in the camel and the navy now and they are beautiful shoes! Just waiting for an event to warrant showing them off now! Keep em’ coming Modshoes.

Once again, another blinding pair of “ones and twos.
I have the Frescos and the Paulos and when I saw the Deightons in Camel I just had to have them, but they had sold out before I could buy a pair!!
But due to popular demand they came back in to stock and I snapped them up!
To be fair id like a pair in every colour but hey ho..
These shoes really are the nuts! Well done Modshoes, another cracker!!
