GLORIOUS GOODWOOD

The Goodwood Edit

Glorious Goodwood runs from 28 July to 2 August, five days on the Sussex Downs where the dress code shifts enclosure by enclosure. Three shoes carry a man through the week, from the formality of the Richmond Enclosure to a long summer evening after the last race. Here is how we would wear them.

Tan capped Oxfords on the turf by a marquee at a summer racecourse, worn with a grey morning suit

The Guildhall

For the Richmond Enclosure.

A tan capped Oxford is the correct note for the Richmond Enclosure, where a jacket and tie are expected. Worn with a linen or seersucker suit it keeps the whole look sharp without turning stiff. Clean lines, a polished finish, quietly formal.

£160

SHOP THE GUILDHALL

Tan wingtip brogue derby shoes on gravel by a white paddock rail, worn with stone chinos and a blazer

The Stokes

For Members Hill.

The smart-casual enclosures invite a little more character, and our tan brogue derby earns it. The wingtip detailing reads well against a blazer and chinos, and it is an easy shoe for a day spent on your feet by the rail.

£120

SHOP THE STOKES

Taupe suede loafers on a stone terrace at golden hour, worn sockless with cream linen trousers

III

The Ethan

For the evenings.

When the racing is done and dinner beckons, the Ethan suede loafer takes over. Soft calf suede on a light sole, easy to slip on and easy to wear late into a warm evening. The most relaxed of the three, and the one you will reach for long after the festival.

£89 · USUALLY £180
