Ettinger Middelgrote Schoenlepel- Notenbruin - £150 D R Harris London

The medium length is perfect for keeping by the door without cluttering the shelf, and the nut leather feels substantial in hand. I’ve used it every morning for two weeks now, and it hasn’t scratched or dulled at all.

The leather has this warm, rich tone that looks even better in person, and it’s got a nice solid weight that makes sliding shoes on feel effortless. I’ve used it every morning since it arrived, and it’s already become part of my routine.

This is my third shoehorn and easily the best — the leather feels substantial and luxurious in hand, not flimsy like the others. Slides right into any of my dress shoes without scratching the heel, which is exactly what I needed for my morning routine.
