For a top-of-the-class look worthy of “The Graduate”, nothing beats men’s derbies. They combine classic English elegance with a bold rock-inspired touch worthy of “Peaky Blinders”. A classic smart shoe, the men’s Derby is an essential style for your wardrobe.
How should you wear men’s derbies?
Versatile and timeless, derbies suit a wide range of styles. Derby shoes look just as good with casual jeans as they do with suit trousers.
For classic everyday style, choose a lace-up pair in smooth black leather. A timeless wardrobe staple you can wear from Monday right through to Sunday. Just as well, since they feel so good on your feet.
Add a rock-inspired touch with our grained leather derbies or styles with chunky treaded soles. An XXL sole keeps you looking stylish in wind, rain or snow. Brown pull-up leather also gives your derbies plenty of character.
For a contemporary yet refined look, choose cognac leather derbies. A pair you will never want to take off.

Derbies & Oxford shoes: what is the difference?
Oxford shoes or derbies: which should you choose? The two styles are so similar that it is easy to confuse them. We explain the difference to help you decide.
Oxford shoes have "closed" lacing: the eyelets are set into the quarters, which form part of the shoe’s upper. Derby shoes have "open" lacing, with the eyelets on two pieces of leather sewn onto the shoe. This allows the laces to open wider over the top of the foot, giving wider feet more room.
For maximum comfort, derbies are the ideal shoes for exploring the streets in style.
What colour Derby shoes should you choose?
Every man needs a pair of Derby shoes, but which colour should you choose for your outfit?
If you prefer simplicity, classic Derby shoes in smooth black leather pair perfectly with smart trousers. For a more distinctive look, choose cognac leather derbies. Round-toe Derby shoes with a chunky treaded sole bring a chic outdoor feel to an outfit. These fashionable shoes work with whatever you fancy, from suit trousers to a relaxed jeans-and-cotton-T-shirt combination.
Discover derbies in all their forms, from round-toe to pointed-toe styles. Our derbies are perfect for every occasion. In black, brown, honey, cognac or khaki, our colours add an original touch in any season. Use our instant filters to find your ideal pair of derbies.
