Church’s Autumn/Winter 2026 Collection

Church’s Autumn/Winter 2026 Collection

Church’s presented its Autumn/Winter 2026 collection in Milan with a focus on precision, harmony, and the enduring craft of English shoemaking.

Church’s unveiled its Autumn/Winter 2026 collection during Milan Men’s Fashion Week at the historic Palazzo Barozzi. Renowned for its exceptional acoustics, the space has long inspired musicians and orchestras, making it a fitting setting for a collection rooted in precision, harmony, and craft.

The brand drew a clear parallel between the artistry of musical instruments and the finesse of shoemaking, highlighting the same discipline, sensitivity, and passion that define the work of Church’s master artisans.

Among the collection, two designs stood out as particular favourites:

The Shepherd

Part of the Regent family and built on last 133, The Shepherd is a mountain boot that balances technical performance with a contemporary aesthetic. The upper features exceptionally soft antiqued leather, paired with bi-material inserts in leather and fabric. It is offered in two variations: antiqued leather with striped cotton, or waxed suede combined with waxed cotton. Three interchangeable lace options allow for personal expression while reinforcing the boot’s versatile character.

The Stanhope

A modern interpretation of the iconic Chelsea boot, The Stanhope belongs to the New Formal family. Leather options range from a bright calf with a rich, deep finish to a lightly antiqued calf that delivers a deliberately worn-in appearance. The leather sole, crafted with a double-layer Goodyear welted construction, features its tread left in a natural colour, underscoring the shoe’s understated sophistication and artisanal integrity.

To see that commitment to craft in its purest form, read on as we step inside Church’s own workshop, where generations of shoemaking expertise come to life.
