Church's Reunites with Theo James for 2026 Autumn/Winter Campaign

Church's is continuing its collaboration with British actor Theo James for the 2026 autumn/winter season. Reuniting with creative director David James and photographer Samuel Bradley, the campaign writes a new chapter in the brand's story, one that carries forward its distinctly British craftsmanship.

Set at the Goodwood Motor Circuit in West Sussex, the campaign follows Theo James through a day at the track, blending Church's signature craftsmanship with a freer, more modern approach to dressing up. Vintage racing cars, an impromptu picnic, and a slightly eccentric passenger all make an appearance, unfolding scenes full of British humor.

The film opens with Theo James perched casually on a spare tire in the pit lane, waiting for an exhilarating day to begin. In the relaxed style that has come to define this partnership, he wears the tan "Sidley" boots in soft grain leather with delicate brogue detailing, propping his feet up on a vintage racing helmet.

In the next scene, as he push-starts a vintage Aston Martin, the cocoa-brown suede "Sidbury" derby shoes support his light, easy movement.

He then pairs the new "Skipton" Oxford shoes with relaxed, modern tailoring, showing off a polished look at a picnic beside the track.

No British race day is complete without tea. Wearing the elegant "Stanhope" Chelsea boots, he takes a breather on the starting grid. Then, in the "Farsley" penny loafers, Theo James finds room for an unlikely hitchhiker — a stately Great Dane — before closing out the day on the podium, showered in celebratory champagne.

Throughout the campaign, the Church's 2026 autumn/winter collection is presented not as strict formalwear but as an elegant yet smart style, reflecting the modern man's wardrobe for a range of occasions.

The 2026 autumn/winter collection is now available at Church's official online store and Church's stores.
