Great shoes seem at first to disappear, allowing for an outfit, not robbing it, beckoning closer inspection or a second look. The P Johnson Sophia Sandal has a beautiful, fine and quiet shape that does just that. Subtly impressed leather at the vamp, with faintly glossy grosgrain straps creating a classic fisherman silhouette.

There is a small leather stack to the heel and it is lined with fine nappa leather for a smooth touch. The custom side buckle is covered in matched grosgrain and sports a nifty little hidden elastic piece behind it for comfort and flexion. Premium Italian leathers and construction create a secure base that can be trusted to last, and the deep chocolate colour is highly sympathetic to whatever is thrown at it.
