Product details+
A derby for the days between a sneaker and a dress shoe. The Ashby keeps the open lacing of a classic derby, a clean square toe and visible welt-style stitching around the upper, set on a flat rubber sole that grips and flexes.
It works with chinos and an open collar as easily as with wool trousers and a jacket, and it is light enough to wear all day.
- Open derby lacing
- Square toe
- Contrast stitching around the upper
- Flat rubber sole with a textured tread
- Cushioned PU insole and breathable cloth lining
- No logos, no visible branding
Black, Brown, Blue, White
What is the difference between a derby and an oxford?
The lacing. On a derby the eyelet panels are stitched on top of the shoe and open wide, which makes it easier to put on and more forgiving on a higher instep. An oxford's laces close into the shoe and read more formal.
