What does it mean?
Brogue
Characterised with distinctive punched holes and pinked trims, the brogue is synonymous with Great British style and craftsmanship, a design that translates across smart and casual, relaxed and formal, country to city.
Born from humble beginnings, the brogue originated as a working man’s shoe made for Scottish and Irish farmers at the turn of the 19th Century, where the perforated uppers allowed effective drainage in the marshes. Over the next century the brogue quickly became a familiar style through the jazz era and went on to style the greats of Hollywood such as Fred Astaire, Gene Kelly and Elvis himself.
To date, the brogue remains the footwear staple for every gent’s edit, where it has evolved through the years to become a traditional dress shoe instantly recognised with its iconic punching and serrated finishing.

Derby
Striking the balance between smart and casual, the Derby shoe offers a more relaxed footwear option.
Differing from the Oxford shoe, the Derby is constructed with an open-lace system that gives further freedom of movement, the quarters are stitched on the upper of the shoe, then the tongue is cut as part of the vamp.
Although the true origin of the Derby shoe is unclear; some believe Prussian Officer, Gebhard Leberecht von Blucher is responsible for creating Derby fronted boots for his troops in the Napoleonic Wars. The Derby shoe rose to fashion in the 1850’s, popular amongst gentlemen with pastimes of hunting and has since grown to become a recognised silhouette for smart casual footwear collections through town and into the city.
