Alex Black Calf Wingtip Derby - 675

Some shoes need the right occasion. The Alex doesn't. It's a longwing derby — open laces, a wingtip that sweeps the full length of the shoe, broguing punched along the seams — and in black it reads sharp enough for the office and easy enough for everything after. The derby that goes where you go.

The upper is full-grain European calfskin, a clean box-calf black finished for an even shine — no burnish, just black done right. Goodyear welted by our artisans, so the shoe holds its shape, takes a polish, and resoles rather than retires.

Built on the 675 last — an almond toe, a slightly roomier fit — it settles onto the foot and stays comfortable through long days. The full leather sole keeps it on the dressier side of casual: slim, classic, made to be resoled and kept.

This is the black shoe for the man who finds the oxford a little stiff. Open laces, wingtip, broguing — relaxed in all the right ways, correct in all the others. The Alex doesn't wait for an occasion. It makes the ordinary one look intentional.
