Our shoes are handmade, lined with leather and Goodyear welt.” To find out more and see the full collection, visit www.percystride.com Discover the new Gentleman Reserve Privee Eau de Parfum, a whisky-inspired fragrance, where floral sophistication meets woody depths. Co-created by master distillers and perfumers, two olfactory worlds are combined to create an intense men’s cologne for a strong, sophisticated gentleman. The scent is expressed through a contrast of ethereal iris and amber woods. Infused with whisky absolute and crafted in Grasse using barley from a refined Scottish distillery, this fragrance embodies timeless elegance and refinement.

The Presage Sharp Edged GMT Zero Halliburton is an exclusive collaboration with Zero Halliburton, American luggage experts, and the first brand to introduce the concept of aluminium luggage.
