Barker Black Loafer
By Don Ellis
he designer shoes that a man wears say quite a lot about who he is. High quality fashion shoes make a strong fashion statement and go a long way toward finishing off an impressive wardrobe. Shoe designer Derrick Miller knows this, and has recently updated a line of distinguished, English shoes.
Barker Black, a company that was originally founded in the village of Earls in 1880, has recently been surged due to Miller's work to create a more modern, upscale look with "subversive sophistication." Miller's update of the Barker Black line is now instantly recognizable by its fresh and edgy skull-and-crossbones motif. The new shoes, known throughout the world for their comfort and innovative design, are aimed straight at the heart of the fashion conscious consumer.
The Barker Black Loafer, a fine example of signature work, is handcrafted from the finest leather available. Hand-tailored and custom built with sinister edge, the shoe is already well-known for luxury and classic styling. With an original update on a classic style, all with the distinctive Derrick Miller flair, this sleek black shoe is sure to make a statement.
Barker Black also provides a full line of ties, pocket squares, boot polish and assorted Victorian men's essentials - products targeted to appeal fashion conscious consumers reflecting a casual urban perspective. But it's that beautiful black shoe – rethought by Miller, by fusing together a classic form with innovative materials and a sensitivity to rethinking a classic idea – that is the one to watch. - D.E.

1 Reader ReviewsI know all about Barker Black! I work in the factory where they are made. I am the last person to touch them before the final examining and boxing process. Providing I am at work,Not off sick for example, I go through every pair to make sure they are up to the standard required. Sometimes I spend hours on a few pairs, just making up tassels, putting them on, checking socks are flat, polishing soles etc. I love to see these shoes at their best. Feel you would like to ask me something let me know at dingyskipper@hotmail.com. They do not know I am writing this, so it's between me and whoever.
