Scottish footwear retail label HANON joins forces with [Padmore & Barnes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heritage-p204) again to work on one of its iconic archival silhouettes, the Higgins model. It is one of the latter brand's models that originated back in 1978, gaining a small level of popularity at the time.

This time around, the silhouette is reworked and arrives in two colorway options, both of which are neutral for versatility. Consumers have the option of either beige or sunflower yellow, made from Italian velour suede at the upper. The moccasin style is further informed with the hand-stitching accents by the heel and the vamp. Branding details can be found at the rear of the shoe, featuring a debossed flame logo.
