Distinctive Derby Features
What makes the Derby shoe distinguishable is its “open-lacing” method of closure. Unlike the Oxford shoe with its wings stitched together at the bottom, the Derby shoe has its eyelets sewn on top of two separate wings.
For someone whose feet have an exceptionally high arch, the open-lacing of a Derby provides them with way more comfort. Its slightly less formal look is a bonus depending on how you’re going to style it.
Over the years, the Derby shoe has evolved a lot trying to keep up with fashion so now we can offer you two outstanding variations:
The Classic Derby Shoe
A classic Adorsi Derby Shoe is produced with either a toe cap or no toe cap at all. If you decided to have a toe-cap on your design, then you can enjoy it punched with a beautiful medallion design or just keep it simple and clean as seen in this amazing Navy Calf Leather Derby Shoes design for a more plain classic look.
The Split-Toe Derby Shoe
Although the rear of the Split-Toe Derby shoe differs slightly from a Classic Derby shoe, having this separate heel-piece sewn onto its rear quarter, they both still share the same essential open-laced construction.
At some point, you might’ve wondered “Where did this Split-Toe name come from?”. Well, a Split-Toe Derby shoe and a Classic Derby one have this curved seam that runs around the apron at the front of the shoe. But if you take a closer look, at the Split-Toe Derby shoe, this seam is split vertically into two pieces - thus a Split-Toe Derby! What a wonder!
By admiring these Burnished Brown Leather Split-Toe Derby Shoes, you get to see how the design gives it an effect of elongating the toe. This allows the creation of some beautiful lace-up shoe designs handcrafted in rich burnished leather such as the one we just saw.
