A classic Derby with brogue detailing, built using traditional Goodyear welt construction. This centuries-old method involves stitching a welt to the uppers and outsoles, creating a strong, long-lasting bond. When the soles eventually wear, a cobbler can replace them without disturbing the rest of the shoe, giving each pair a long life.

The uppers are cut from our signature Italian vegan leather in a warm chestnut tone, made with 69% bio-based content. Each pair is hand-finished in Portugal by the same family-owned workshop we have worked with since 2015. Subtle broguing adds character while keeping the silhouette clean and versatile.

Inside, a cork layer beneath the insole gradually shapes to the contours of your feet, providing support and cushioning that improves with wear. The shoes are fully lined with soft vegan suede and fitted with deep insoles made from recycled materials. Solid rubber outsoles provide grip and durability.

Always and forever vegan

Made in Portugal

Upper
Italian bio-based vegan leather (62–66% plant-origin materials)
Lining
Portuguese vegan suede (100% PU) – soft and comfortable against the foot, with a breathable suede texture that helps keep feet fresh
Insole
Memory foam insole over a traditional cork bed – poured into the shoe and moulded to your foot over time, so they get more comfortable the more you wear them
Outsole
Hard-wearing rubber outsole made with 10% recycled rubber – a standard profile that most cobblers can resole easily when it eventually wears
Laces
Long, extra-strong laces (100% recycled polyester), with metal lace tips (100% zamak — a durable zinc alloy)
Shank
TPU shank for stability and support through the arch – metal-free, so they can be worn through metal detectors
Hardware
Hidden metal eyelets that sit behind the vegan leather for a clean finish, with metal lace tips — both 100% zamak (a durable zinc alloy)
Construction
Goodyear welt construction – the most respected method in shoemaking. The upper, lining and a leather welt are stitched together, then the sole is stitched to the welt, building the shoe up in many more stages than a standard glued shoe. It can be resoled again and again by any cobbler, so it lasts for years, and the welted, sealed build holds up better in wet weather
Water Resistance
Water-resistant for everyday wear – keeps you dry in rain, puddles, wet streets, and most winter conditions. Just avoid heavy saturation or full submersion.
Width
D width fitting – a slightly wider fit with more volume than standard
Fit
Order your usual size. Half size? Wider width fittings size up, narrower width fittings size down.

Made with Italian bio-based vegan leather containing 62–66% plant-origin renewable materials. Produced in Italy using modern water-based, non-solvent processes, combining a viscose backing with a next-generation bio-based polyurethane surface.
Clean: Wipe the uppers and outsoles with warm soapy water and a cloth or soft brush, then towel dry thoroughly. Polish: A synthetic polish can be used to bring back shine and refresh the colour — any synthetic product should work fine, applied as described in its instructions. If your footwear has a burnished effect on the toes and sides (we apply a darker polish to some of our brown vegan leather uppers for effect), this is best reapplied by a cobbler, or at home using a darker shade of polish worked around the toes and sides. Drying: You can dry your footwear on top of or near a radiator or other heat source. Depending on the heat, it can take a few days to dry out the insides fully. Never put your footwear in the washing machine. Deodorising: Don't let your footwear stay damp between wears, especially inside boots, as this can damage the water resistance and let microbes develop, causing a smell. If this happens, dry the footwear thoroughly and use a footwear deodoriser until the smell stops. In extreme cases, wash the insides out with warm soapy water, then dry fully and reapply the deodoriser. Waterproofing (optional): You can treat the uppers with a waterproofing spray to improve durability, stain resistance and water resistance. We recommend doing this every 2–3 months depending on use — most standard waterproofing sprays work fine on our vegan leather.
