Story & heritage
Crockett & Jones was established in 1879 in Northampton, England; Wikipedia describes the company as specialising in Goodyear-welted footwear. The official US store places Harvard 2 inside its Men's Icons Collection, making this a source-grounded brand icon rather than a memory-only pick.
Harvard 2 is an unlined version of our classic penny loafer 'Boston'. Developed on last 376, Harvard 2 features a closer heel fitting for a more secure fit. Made from the finest dark brown suede leather with our 'City' rubber sole. From the Men's Main Collection. This colourway of repello suede is tanned to be water repellent. Fully treated with ‘Scotch guard’ during the tanning process, the material achieves an exceptionally high level of water resistance to water and oil based substances. This proofing remains effective throughout the life of the footwear although we do recommend you continue with general suede shoe care .
Materials & craft
Official US product data lists Harvard 2 as a Loafer from the Main Collection. This selected version is Dark Brown Suede with City Rubber on Last 376 in E (Standard) fitting.
How to choose & style
Use it as the easy icon in the rotation: sockless with summer tailoring, with denim, or as a softer counterpoint to an unstructured jacket. Suede versions lean casual; calf versions dress up faster.
