The Grecian in Navy Velvet with Embroidered Shark

The Grecian is a hand-cut loafer, on the 7026 pattern, straight from our archives. A style Bowhill & Elliott have been making since the 1970's. With an elegant low vamp, the Grecian is a stylish loafer option, that elevates any outfit all year round. Brand new for 2026, the Grecian in Navy Velvet with our hand embroidered Shark is a design we are thrilled to launch. Crafted from our signature plush navy velvet carefully executed by hand using traditional gold work techniques that combine wires and threads to create unparalleled depth and beauty. Experience the difference quality craftsmanship makes. These slippers feature a distinctive saffron suede lining—a thoughtful alternative to standard leather. This refined choice ensures comfort whether you prefer wearing them with or without socks, giving you versatility without compromise. Complete with the cemented hard sole, the discreet rubber Street Slipper® sole for durability. It has the same profile as our traditional leather soles used on our dress slippers. Handmade in England since 1874, our Grecians are manufactured using time honoured shoemaking practices such as clicking, turning and lasting all by hand. The Grecian with hand embroidery is a Made-to-Order style so please expect a 12 week lead time.
