An easy-to-wear slip-on mule shoe, Fly’s Tani is available in camel-tan or night-sky-navy leather. A wide stretch of leather wraps across the front of the foot, holding your feet securely in position and leaving the tips of your toes and your heel exposed. While the thick-cut leather is a bit stiff initially, this will soften and mould to your feet with wear. Allowing you to tighten or loosen the fit around your foot, Tani has a strap that overlaps the leather vamp. This threads through a loop and fastens with a large circular adjustable bronze buckle on the outside of the foot. The strap and buckle are as much fashionable as functional and contribute largely to the laid-back style of this mule. As comfortable as it is contemporary, Tani has a low 3.5cm wedge sole unit constructed from durable, flexible and shock absorbing thermoplastic rubber. This has a natural cork-effect and wavy undersole. Forming the top-side of the sole unit is a soft, spongy, leather lined foot bed. Wrapping around the contour of the shoe where the foot bed meets the sole unit, is an attractive strip leather imprinted with the pattern of the Fly-logo.
About Rogerson Shoes:
Who we are and how is it that we came to be so passionate about shoes?
Like many classics our story revolves around one or two ambitious pioneers, a love affair, war, a family drama, conflict and its resolution. What laces this story together is a connection with the land, and a need to provide for the people of it.
Let’s set the scene of how our business was born. It’s 1905 and Thomas Rogerson sits concentrating over his tools in a shed at the end of a bridge in Rothbury. Motivated by the desire to win the hand of Isabelle, he needs to learn a trade. And so it was that he learnt to repair shepherd’s boots.
Skip forward over 100 years from this humble beginning, and here we are; from robust, carefully crafted tackety boots designed to tackle the heather hilltops, to on-trend trainers in a spectrum of colours, designed to tackle the concrete jungle! Originally sold under canvas at agricultural shows, by mail order or taken directly to farms. Now, displayed using bright light boxes in our high street stores, or sold via easy on-line orders that will arrive at your door.
What’s new?
Our mission now is to stock a vibrant and compelling choice of shoes, boots, sandals, slippers and bags. Made using traditional and progressive manufacturing techniques and a wide range of materials from Gore-Tex to vegetable tanned leathers, our selection is diverse. Ranging from fun, quirky, edgy and joyful designs, to sophisticated classics, to practical waterproof adventure shoes and boots for enjoying the hills.
Different from other footwear retailers in terms of the breadth of our range, we stock many styles that are unique to our business, including colour combinations, prints and lasts. Prioritising pricing, quality and comfort we work on the principle that well-made shoes wear better, are more of a pleasure to wear, and ultimately, are less wasteful.
Passionate people
The Rogerson’s ethos is one of positivity, and we aim to employ happy people who enjoy their work and convey this in their attitude to others. With weekly training on everything from leather, construction techniques and technical features, our staff aim to facilitate a friendly and efficient shopping experience and will go out of their way to bring you all the shoes you fancy trying on! Alternatively, one of our 120 strong team of keen beans will carefully parcel them up for your online orders. We dispatch from both our central warehouse in the pretty town of Peebles, and from our 13 busy stores across Scotland.
