The Radford Brown Leather with Contrast Stitching

The Radford makes a statement in brown leather with contrast stitching. A pointed toe and open sides give this pump its edge, while the balanced heel adds lift without compromising the easy feel. Wear it with tailored trousers for work, denim and a blazer for dinner or a dress when the occasion calls for polish. Sharp but comfortable, The Radford brings personality to your wardrobe and makes a simple outfit feel considered.

Like all Blankens shoes, The Radford is crafted by hand in a small, family-run factory in Portugal. Smooth leather, leather lining and a leather-clad heel give this version its clean finish; the visible stitching adds a distinct line without changing the character of the shoe.

At Blankens, we are a small group of women designing shoes for our own lives. We wear and test every style ourselves, working through fit, function and feeling so each shoe has a clear role in the wardrobe. Shoes that make the outfit — and feel good to wear.

The Radford Brown Leather Contrast Stitching is a women's pointed-toe pump in dark brown smooth leather, with light contrast stitching across the upper and along its open sides. It has a closed heel, leather lining, a slim sole and a leather-clad heel positioned for balance. A polished low-heel pump for work, dinner and everything in between.

Pointed shape with extra room at the forefoot.

Balanced heel placement helps create a steady feel.

Flexible Tunit sole for everyday wear.

Fits true to size. The pointed shape has extra width at the forefoot. If you are between sizes, size down.

We use only European Gold rated Leather Working Group leathers. The upper is dark brown smooth leather with light contrast stitching. It has a leather lining, a slim Tunit sole and a leather-covered heel.

Treat your shoes to make them last longer! Regular care keeps your shoes beautiful, soft, and strong. By cleaning, conditioning, and protecting the leather, you preserve its suppleness, prevent cracks, and maintain its natural shine. Think of it as skincare — for your most trusted companions. A small ritual that makes a big difference, keeping your Blankens favorites fresh and ready for every season.

We recommend using a protective spray, such as the Water Proofer, before first wear and reapply regularly to guard against moisture and stains.

Wipe the smooth leather with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Use a suitable leather conditioner or shoe cream sparingly to maintain the finish, testing it on a discreet area first.

Don't forget the inside. Refresh the insole by cleaning it with The Foam Cleaner.

We recommend storing them in a cool, dry place when not in use, with a shoe tree or paper stuffing to maintain shape. Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture and direct heat.

How to use these measurements
Insole length is measured from heel to toe. Leave a little room at the front: boots may feel more comfortable with a little extra space, while loafers usually fit best with less. Pointed styles extend beyond where the toes sit, so the pointed tip does not provide extra room for the toes. If you are between sizes, a thin insole can help create a half-size. For closed heels, a half insole can fine-tune the fit.
