Glossy textured panels and prominent stitching give these chunky Derby shoes a distinctive edge. Smooth sections frame the rounded toe and heel, while curved overlays add detail along the sides. An open lace-up fastening sits above a thick sole with a deeply notched outer edge.

Wear them with cropped tailored trousers and a fine-knit polo for a contemporary smart casual combination. Straight-leg denim and an overshirt bring out their workwear-inspired character. Keep trouser hems clear of the soles to show the stitching around the edge.
Introduce a bolder shoe shape to your everyday tailoring. The mix of surface textures gives plain separates an interesting finishing touch. Add a structured jacket and a simple belt for an outfit that carries through from daytime appointments to dinner.
