A luxurious shoe for business events and festive occasions: Presenting the double-stitched, handcrafted cap-toe Derby with open five-eyelet lacing. Its upper is made from exclusive shell cordovan sourced from Chicago’s Horween tannery.

This famous equine leather is virtually indestructible and barely develops creases from wear — even the smallest scratches on its surface can be simply polished away. Moreover, shell cordovan is very easy to care for. Thanks to its high natural fat content, it effortlessly maintains a glassy, mirrored look and a smooth and supple feel.

Of equally high quality is the shoe’s processed leather outsole, made using materials from the traditional Trier-based Rendenbach tannery, and fixed in place with a meticulously arranged set of six nails. Since this shoe has been assembled using a generous London last, it is pleasantly rounded at the front of the foot, ensuring the utmost degree of wearing comfort, even for gentlemen with wider-than-average feet.
