Description
The Loake Ballantyne is a refined evolution of the Bannister silhouette, designed with ease and understated elegance in mind. Crafted from a combination of suede and grain calf leather, it offers subtle texture and depth within a clean, modern profile.
Built on the Trainer last, Ballantyne provides a comfortable, well-balanced fit with a bold toe shape. A fully elasticated opening replaces traditional lacing, allowing for effortless wear while maintaining a streamlined appearance and exceptional comfort.
Designed and engineered in Kettering, Northamptonshire, and handmade in our high-grade factory in India, Ballantyne balances traditional shoemaking knowledge with contemporary design. A versatile, laceless trainer suited to refined everyday wear.

Please explain the different Fitting Codes
English made Men’s shoes (and boots) are generally made in fittings E, F and G. These can be classified simplistically as follows:
|
E= Narrow |
(sometimes known as 5 fitting) |
Between fittings in the same size there is approximately 1/4" difference in girth measurement.
Although there is no absolute standard for fittings, there is a table of measurements and we believe our shoes are made as near as it is possible to get to that "standard" as they have been for over 130 years.
The bulk of our styles are made in F fitting, as statistics show that worldwide this is the most appropriate fitting for a majority of males, but we also offer a good selection of G fitting shoes.
Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have any fitting questions.
