A Scottish Fairytale

As with all our winter collections, boots are key - after all there is no such thing as bad weather, if you’re wearing the right footwear. Our waterproof Inclement range continues to grow in popularity, and we’ve introduced the Brae, a shearling lined, water resistant hiking boot, made from sustainably sourced, rubberised leather.

Our snow boots feature new designs with hand stitched moccasin toe lines and Goodyear welt construction soles, and our Incredible and Cosmos shearling lined styles feature rich ponyskin colourways and technical components for snow and ice. A specialist area of footwear we are proud to do well.

For those extra cold days, the Stornoway, Lomond, Cordillera and Cabin, come on chunkier soles adding protection from the frozen ground. Designed from rich leather and soft suede combinations, the boots are full of character for long winter months in the mountains.

The cowboy aesthetic continues to grow with updates to our current styles and the launch of our beautiful Silvestre boot, an authentic cowboy design, with stitched and studded Western detail.

Our shoe collection celebrates its Scottish inspirations, with the tartan Mary Janes, complete with covered buckles, sitting alongside our beautiful Ayr loafers - an updated snaffle style, with a traditionally stitched apron in rich metallic gold. Winter velvets feature heavily, with new saffron and khaki colourways for the Gamine and Mary Jane, and updated puffball clutches.

Our loafer story takes a more refined direction, with the Lorenzo family of 3 heel heights taking centre stage this pre-Autumn. Cut from butter soft leather and adorned with hand-bound, leather gold chains, they are our most chic and elegant shoe collection yet, made with no corners cut in quality and design. The patent leather Monti and Irvine moccasins are the perfect neutral update to your day-to-day wardrobe.

Diamante buckles adorn the Tiffany pumps, sitting alongside our metallic Mary Jane and velvet ballet pumps, widening our collection of pumps, which have become a major trend in the small shoe silhouette right now. 

Penelope designs footwear collections surrounded by multi layered references, so this season we have embraced the relationships we have with our local Scottish artisans, who make all our socks, by broadening our knitwear collection to include some traditional Fairisle knitted wool vests, all handmade in Scotland.

The campaign was shot at Balcarres Castle, in Fife, Scotland, the family home to the Earl and Countess of Crawford, whose family have lived on the land for over twenty generations. We would highly recommend a stay in one of their beautiful cottages, available to rent on the estate, recently interior designed using British suppliers and materials.
