Huckberry Teams With Rancourt & Co. For Handsome Mocs Made From More Than 100 Steps
Rugged leather camp mocs handcrafted in Maine.
Even as summers come and go, style classics stand the test of time, particularly ones made with tried-and-true methods in the United States. The new Huckberry x Rancourt & Co. Coggins Gilman Camp Moc certainly fit the bill in that regard, and they’re the latest exclusive footwear launch from the vaunted retailer.
These rugged mocs take their cues from throwback classics your father or grandfather might have worn (likely from Maine’s Rancourt & Co.) decades ago, fashioned from rich Horween Chromexcel leather. The sturdy moc toe design is painstakingly cut and sewn using more than 100 steps by the family-owned business, a cut above other pairs of leather boat shoes.
The handsome handsewn shoes also boast the hardware to match, in this case antique brass eyelets and chestnut leather laces for an elevated touch that should still pair nicely with Huckberry’s chino shorts and a breezy polo. In addition to carefully crafted heritage leather uppers, the shoes rest easily on a Rancourt-exclusive camp-moc sole for a blend of high-low style.
The shoes join a precisely designed and expertly sewn lineup of USA-made boat shoes, moc toe boots and leather sneakers from the heritage-minded company, and represent another step in Huckberry’s quest to gather the best of the best under one Web site. Of the shoes, the retailer noted “Rancourt & Co. are redefining exceptional craftsmanship, ingraining a philosophy that things should be built to last, and when possible, passed down as heirlooms.”
For now, these shoes are available in a range of sizes for a well-heeled $295 (quite the high price tag to pay for leather moc shoes, but then again, very few feature Rancourt & Co.’s level of craftsmanship). They should prove plenty wearable the rest of summer, particularly considering the taller and broader toe box of the shoe itself. From light wash jeans and your favorite henley to a Cuban collar shirt and linen pants, the latest and greatest from Huckberry and Rancourt is here to shake up your summer footwear rotation with ease.
