Loake Men'S Irwin Derby Shoes - Black Calf

The Loake Irwin Oxford Shoe uses Goodyear-welted construction, a lace-up Derby cut from leather with a full leather lining and an Ortholite-cushioned insole. The open lacing across the instep opens wide for easy entry and sits just below a closed-lace Oxford in formality. Around five days of wear is enough for the leather to mould to the shape of the foot. **Product Highlights** * Goodyear-welted sole that a cobbler can replace, adding years of wear to the shoe * Ortholite insole cushions underfoot through long hours standing * Leather lining moulds to the foot over time for a closer, steadier fit * Open Derby lacing allows the fit across the instep to be adjusted **Best For** * Full office days that run from morning meetings into the commute home * Weddings and corporate events where a smart-formal dress code applies * Smart-casual dressing with chinos or tailored trousers * Anyone building a classic British wardrobe meant to be resoled rather than replaced
