About this build

We build this formal derby with a smooth black oxhide leather upper and a classic open lacing system. Inside, a layered lift system adds 2.8 inches to your height while maintaining standard exterior dress shoe lines. A Goodyear welt anchors the construction for lasting wear on a rubberized bottom.

Layered internal lift

The internal footbed integrates a lift build that adds 2.8 inches. From the outside, the shoe maintains a balanced profile with an external heel height of 1 inch and a total shaft height of 5 1/4 inches.

Oxhide leather upper

We shape the upper from genuine black oxhide leather finished with a clean round toe. The leather takes a high shine, softens around the instep over time, and pairs with an open-laced derby closure for easy volume adjustment.

Goodyear welt build

The upper is stitched to the insole using traditional Goodyear welt construction. This stitch-down method provides dependable durability across seasons and allows a cobbler to resole the shoe when the rubberized bottom wears down.

Leather inner lining

Full leather lines the interior walls and footbed to manage daily foot friction. The smooth lining works with the standard D-width last to seat the foot securely against the internal counter throughout full formal events.
