Zoli Blue Suede Derby

Product Description

Well its one for the money is this blue suede derby. Elvis, we are sure, would have agreed. A really beautiful bright blue suede mens shoe which has a lovely shape last and the vibrant colour is lifted by the sole and surround stitch which is light. These mens blue suede derby shoes would look so cool with some loud socks and turn up jeans and equally rock the no socks and shorts/turn ups. However you wear this blue suede shoe for men, the feel will be bright and fun. Originally, this type of shoe was a walking shoe which came about as a quest for better fitting shoes for the big footed 14th Earl of Derby. The flaps (technically quarters) which have the eyelets sewn on denote the style of this shoe as a derby which is easier to get feet into than other shoes and boots. Over the years, the mens derby shoe became one that could be worn in more serious ways and certainly became accepted to wear with a suit and so formality crept in. Although not as formal as an oxford, these derby shoes (also known as Bulchers) crossed the formal and informal brilliantly. Having said that, the fabric of this derby means it sits more in the casual camp but what a lively look it produces. You could protect the blue suede with spray and insert trees. We say unfinished cedar are best as they neutralise odours as well as maintain the shape. Bright as they are, these blue suede derbys may prefer to live in the dark and come out to play when you wear them. Check this out: https://www.gentlemansgazette.com/derby-shoe-blucher-guide/
