Ernest in Black Calfskin
This classic caged fisherman style is constructed in smooth calfskin and named with a nod to Hemingway’s Old Man and The Sea.
Please note that these shoes are made from vachetta, a vegetable-tanned calfskin leather, and they will need to be broken in on most feet. Over time, this high-quality leather will change its shape and mold to fit your foot for optimal comfort.
