About this build

We build this formal lace-up on a classic semi-sharp toe last, pairing high-shine patent oxhide with a full leather lining. The internal lift adds 2.8 inches across the heel and midsole, while the exterior shows an ordinary one and one-quarter inch heel. A dependable rubber outsole anchors the Goodyear welted base for black-tie wear.

Patent oxhide upper

We cut the upper from genuine oxhide finished with a mirror-gloss patent coat. The low-top silhouette features a semi-sharp toe and clean blind eyelets designed specifically for black-tie tailoring.

Concealed lift build

The internal riser integrates into the footbed to deliver a 2.8 inch rise. From the outside, the visible back heel measures one and one-quarter inches, preserving standard formal dress proportions.

Goodyear welted sole

We stitch the upper to a sturdy rubber bottom using Goodyear welt construction. The rubber outsole provides steady grip across polished floors while keeping the shoe profile slim and formal.

Leather lined interior

A smooth leather lining wraps the interior from heel counter to toe box. It breathes naturally and prevents friction against dress socks during long evenings on your feet.
