J. Crew Ludlow derbys dress shoes AH880 10.5 black

Built with premium materials plus hard-wearing details...our new dress shoes are the perfect foundation for Ludlow suits, chinos or denim. We start with thick Italian leather insoles, a cork-bed filler that molds to your foot for a custom fit, and a Goodyear welt, so you can resole them again and again. We use Italian leather that is vegetable tanned, a process with thousands of years of history that gives the leather depth, and a natural look and feel, which improves with age. Emerging from England in the 19th century, the derby is almost indistinguishable from the blucher (there's a slight variance in the piece of leather where you can find your derby's eyelets)—they both step away from the Oxford in their open lacing systems, allowing for greater flexibility.Leather upper, lining and soleColor: black
