10 Years of Fairfax & Favor | Celebrating Luxury Style
Born in the picturesque scenery of the Norfolk countryside, Fairfax & Favor is a shining example of a company that has grown and developed through sheer determination, perseverance, and good old fashioned hard work. Early challenges to overcome included funding, job-juggling, and finding their niche in the market. However, founders Marcus Fairfax Fountaine and Felix Favor Parker persisted in their mission to create a product that would bridge the worlds of country casual and high-end fashion. The result of this determination was the Regina boot, and the rest is history.
The next ten years brought increasingly successful trade shows, as well as big ticket event sponsorships. With five store openings and endless collection launches under their belts, Fairfax & Favor continue their takeover of the countryside fashion world. Sported by Olympians, royals, celebrities and influencers alike, Fairfax now boasts a huge range of footwear, handbags and purses, accessories and clothing. As the portfolio of products expands, we take a look at some of the key elements of Fairfax’s decade of development.
The Regina Boot
Fairfax & Favor Regina Boots are the ultimate blend of luxury and practical. There’s an option for every wardrobe, with designs in supple leather and soft suede, heeled or flat, as well as a choice of calf fits. Of course, we can’t forget the colours!
The Regina successfully transformed a clunky countryside boot into something fit for the runway. The slim fit creates a flattering leg line for any wearer, while the detailing highlights the quality of this iconic shoe. Factor in the interchangeable tassel, and you’ve got yourself a truly special piece of footwear.
With Regina being Fairfax’s crown jewel, it’s no surprise that this is the product headlining the 10 Year Anniversary collection. This limited design brings back the two-tone tan and navy colourway that has always proved popular. However, it’s the gold detailing which really makes this Regina special, bringing an enhanced premium quality to this hero product. The limited edition anniversary Regina is available as a flat or heeled boot.
The Windsor Handbag
After the success of Fairfax footwear in 2013, the brand expanded to include the ultimate accessory – handbags. Fairfax & Favor handbags are impeccably crafted from suede, leather, or both, for an unmistakeable display of luxury. Browse the Instagram profile of any country lifestyle influencer, and you’re sure to find a Mini Windsor or a Finsbury Cross Body Bag popping up on the regular.
The Windsor handbag is another staple in the Fairfax collection. Features include a choice of carry options, multiple interior pockets, and base studs to protect the bottom of the bag. As a result, the classic Windsor ticks every box under form and function. Since then, the Windsor family has grown, and now features a range of variations of the original bag. These include the Windsor tote and the ever popular Mini Windsor seen above. All are finished with that familiar gold Fairfax & Favor hardware and branding, as well as the interchangeable tassel.
The 10th Anniversary Mini Windsor Handbag continues Fairfax’s classic colour palette, with navy and gold taking centre stage. We can guarantee you’ll fall in love with the beautifully soft suede and luxury detailing of this special edition. We certainly have! As with the rest of the anniversary collection, this Mini Windsor is packaged in an exclusive box with a stunning new “rural vogue” print.
Seasonal Colourways
Seasonal colours are perfect for freshening up your wardrobe without the need to replace everything in it. Fairfax & Favor love adding a splash of colour to their classic pieces. The Spring and Summer season tends to bring bright, fresh colours which have you dreaming of holidays. For example, this year’s Sunset Orange and Ocean colours create all the dreamy feelings of watching the sun go down on the beach.
The colder end of the year brings deeper and cosier tones, like 2022’s Plum shade, or 2018’s rich Oxblood red. Excitingly, most of the seasonal colourways are limited editions! This results in the pieces becoming highly sought after collectible items, further enhancing the premium feel and reputation.

Why We Love Fairfax & Favor
The key thing that really makes us fall in love with Fairfax & Favor is the quality of their products. Their footwear is crafted from the most premium leather, with a full leather lining to support the structure of taller boots. Above all, this lining is breathable and incredibly comfortable, resulting in fashionable footwear you’ll actually enjoy wearing. If cared for properly, Fairfax & Favor boots are a real investment; premium materials, excellent craftsmanship, and a long lifespan, with timeless styling that will always turn heads.
Attention to detail is another trademark feature of the brand, from the tassels to the gold hardware and smart branding. Even the packaging has been carefully thought out, with everything stored and delivered in its very own Fairfax blue branded dust bag and matching box.
Finally, we can’t talk about Fairfax without acknowledging the amazing photoshoots that accompany each season. Locations both home and abroad bring out the beautiful features of Fairfax products, highlighting them in the settings they were designed to live in.
We can’t wait to see what the next 10 years of Fairfax & Favor brings!
