Derbies

The derby shoe is, along with the Oxford shoe, the most popular type of shoe when looking for something distinguished . Historically, men's derbies, with their open lacing, were more suited to less formal activities than Oxford shoes, but over time these rules tend to become more flexible. It will therefore mainly be a question of taste and desire. One thing is certain, you cannot go wrong by choosing one of these two models. The best thing is to have both!

Why choose men's derbies?
The derby is a true essential in the wardrobe of any man who favors beautiful things and elegance, just like a beautiful white shirt or well-cut pants. What's more, these shoes offer incomparable comfort thanks to the laces which are located on the inserts, which is also an advantage for men with a somewhat strong instep. Derbies are therefore appropriate for many situations, from a wedding in Provence under the olive trees to afternoons exploring museums or even a summer picnic with friends.
