We have upgraded these great boots, with a thicker leather sole. It is twice the thickness, which can be seen in the pics.
As you may know these boots are very popular, and for good reason, they are great to wear, look ace, smart or casual and little wearing in.
These gorgeous boots are very evocative of the Boots worn in TV Program Peaky Blinders, and hence the name The Shelby.
The design has exclusively been made for us, and you wont find these anywhere else. Unlike a lot of brogue boots, these have been made to look “Retro Smart”. Notice the front is a Squarer and , more retro shape.
The oxblood is very subtle, and the leather type means it doesn’t need lots of polishing.
They come with a Leather sole, and the leather upper is soft enough to wear straight away.
Sizing & Wearing In
Comparable boots to these can sometimes take weeks to soften up. I wore my sample ones at one night whilst Djing, and was very comfortable more or less straight away. Yes you do get that stiff, boots on for the first time, but the leather soon accommodates. I have worn mine loads of times already and very pleased with them.
STICK WITH SIZE, dont go down or up. Width wise they are normal +.
In terms of their looks these will work with a multitude of outfits, inc Jeans, Coloured jeans, Trousers & obviously a suit. We could suggest many colour combination, but a fave would be Prince of Wales, Tweed or Chequered Trousers for that Peaky Blinders look.
Techs:
Upper : Oxblood Leather
Sole : Leather

Some years back when I could not source quality brogues in Australia, my search lead me to Mod Shoes , the Loakes brand and Mod Shoes own brand. In the 8 years I’ve been a non UK client of Mod Shoes, they have always had the best priced Loakes plus a range of their own brand which have been my new favorites.
Mod Shoes’s customer service is FAB. Takes less than a week for an order to be sent half way around the world.
Loakes may well have opened a store in my city, but can’t go past Mod Shoe’s price and service.
Well played Mod Shoes.

These boots are so good. Comfortable to wear. the quality is outstanding. I wear them to the office, nights out and formal occasions. o many favourable comments from my friends and colleagues.

From the moment I put these boots on, I knew I’d made the right choice. The quality is incredible, the fit is brilliant and there’s no mistaking these are a really well-made, stylish product. I’m really impressed, and can’t wait to wear them to an upcoming event. Company despatches really fast and packaging is great, to protect the items so your shoes or boots arrive in perfect condition. In short, don’t hesitate, just buy – you won’t regret it! 5 stars.

Mod culture was a big think for me when I was young, back in the day nice things were hard to get.. Like my father always says, work hard & you can appreciate the nice things in life, when I seen the mod boots.. I had to get pair.. I couldn’t believe how fast the delivery was, they come the next day, soon as I opened the box, I could smell the quality of leather & how smart they looked absolutely amazing.. To be honest it was a shame to wear them.. The box was well presented.. I’m Very Happy I seen the website on line.. 👍

Beautiful crafted leather boots at a great price. Delivered within one week to my adress in the Netherlands! Very happy customer.
robert hernandez –
Quality boots with a vintage feel. Supple leather, beautiful deep oxblood colorway, and of prime import to me: comfort. I was not at all surprised by the brilliance of these boots because I’ve long since realised that Modshoes takes palpable pride in the quality of all the items they produce. Unlike other brands, they take classic items and add their own personal touches and improvements to them; no soulless regurgitative manufacturing for a quick-buck here – only quality!
For the uninitiated: stop mulling about and place that order! You will be happy you did.
Mark McKew –
My first purchase on what turned out to be many from Modshoes.
The boots are themselves beautiful and make you stand out amongst a sea of black and brown (although I was so impressed I ended up buying the chestnut variant as well as the oxblood with winter soles!)
After a few hours wearing the boots are broken in nicely, so stick with size.
Great value, great service.
Highly recommended.

Searched the world over to replace my favorite oxblood brogues I bought over thirty years ago but never could find anything to match… until I found this store. Two weeks order to door, these boots are perfect. These leathers broke in quickly and form-fit to me in no time at all, they’re like a second skin. Total satisfaction.
They’re a dream come true. Aiming to order another pair soon. If you’re hesitating to purchase these online, don’t. Hit the order button. You won’t be disappointed.
Thanks, Mod Shoes. You’ve got my recommendation without reservation.

Bit the dust and ordered and what a service delivered promptly with fantastic coms, and the shoes are outstanding and love the nice wide fit. Just about to order a second pair as a present and can not recommend enough to anyone looking for quality shoes.

I bought my Shelby boots around 18 moths ago and have worn them to work most days since.
Great quality boot at a really good price and they regularly draw positive comments from people that see them. Couldn’t be happier.

Definitely a customer for life!

I got a V1 pair last year for my birthday. I should have asked for a size lower as stated so had to send them back. The customer service was top notch with the return and I soon had the correct size.
I wear these bad boys any chance I get. They go with any outfit whether you’re getting dressed up for a wedding or going down the boozer with your mates on a Friday night.
Apart from this they are very comfortable, which makes me love them even more. Proper smart ??

I bought the Shelby V1 last year and they were so beautiful they stayed in the box for a couple of months as I was scared to wear them!
The leather is softer than the average and it is true that you can get away with wearing them out of the box (though perhaps not if it is going to be a long day/ night!).
I have very wide feet and can still get away with my right size for length.
The colour is deep and rich and the shine is high without looking cheap or plastic.
As the sole is leather you obviously have to take care not to wear them in all weather, but to safeguard I have treated the sole when polishing (you can buy the she care kit from here while you are at it).
My only ‘criticism’ as it were, would be that the sole could be thicker and lo and behold, the good people at Mod Shoes have clocked this and rectified with the V2 which I understand is otherwise identical.
Rest assured that when these have done their time I will be back for the V2!
Adrian Ball –
From day one these boots felt comfortable and fitted extremely well. Had to buy in black as well ?.
Look good and feel good.
Neil Edwards –
These are the shoes I got married in. Absolutely beautiful pair of boots which are comfortable to wear and scream quality.
I am almost reluctant to wear them as I don’t want to wear them out…almost. When I want to dress to impress then out come the Shelbys.
If you are hovering over the buy button do yourself a favour and pull the trigger.
Drenin –
Great shoe, Great price, Great service!
I was looking for a quality brogue boot in black with reasonable price then I came across this Shelby V2 in oxblood, I knew straight away that it is of quality then I checked out the black one, I was amazed at the sight of it. My delivery came the next day.
I use a size 8 but ordered for size 7 cos I got slim feet, when I wore the shoe, I was so glad I got them and that was the last size 7 I got.
I will definitely shop with mod shoes again. They seems to be all about Quality with great price.
Damian Fowles (verified owner) –
Absolutely thrilled with my Shelby boots. The service provided by Modshoes Shoes was exceptional from start to finish. The boots themselves are great quality and fantastic value for the price. Would certainly have no hesitation in dealing with this company again. 5* all the way.
Sean (verified owner) –
Boots turned up looking the part, initially a bit on the stiff side as stated by seller. Took about a week of daily wearing to get them broken in, now they fit like they were made for me. I have added a leather insole as my feet are on the small side, but this is no reflection on the fit. Already planning my next purchase.
Mal cotterill –
Mod shoes wow just received my Shelby V2 oxblood, great service,fast deliver! Fantastic looking boots, very comfortable and leather looks and smells great, wore for a few hours didn’t want to take them off! So so comfortable and feel broke in already ? would definitely recommend these boots and order again from mod shoes. Guys and girls if your thinking about getting a pair get ordering while in stock.

These boots are gorgeous. Smart, retro and exceptionally well-made. The delivery and overall service was excellent too. 100 quid for a pair of these is well worth it!

I was a little unsure buying on-line from a new supplier, but I am over the moon with my new Shelby boots. I am a Loake and Barker man but these boots are the real deal and at a great price. Soles are tremendous and the whole boot is top quality. A little wider fitting than normal but after only a week the boots are already feeling great. These boots are a third of the price of other top boots but with no less quality. I’m a new fan Mod Shoes
