The "Lazyman" is a moniker given to a type of brogues that do not feature any laces, but rather, elastic side gussets. It is said to have been originally designed for Sir Winston Churchill.
Simply slip them on and be comfortable whilst roaming around town. And the superior hand-welted construction allows them to be lighter than any shoes of any other construction method.
The uppers are composed of calf leather from the Weinheimer tannery in Germany.

Hand-welted Construction
In contrast to Goodyear or cement welting, hand-welting is a labour intensive process that results in a lighter and more comfortable shoe. The uppers are held on the last for an average of three full days.

Bark-tanned Soles
As a standard feature, all Yearn shoes have premium leather soles that have been bark-tanned. Every outsole is also hand-stitched, which extends the number of possible resoles.
