J. Crew | Shoes | J Crew Ludlow Derbys Shoes Oxfords Leather 。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, durable 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 leather that is vegetable-tanned, a process with thousands of years of history that gives the leather depth and a natural look and feel that improves with age. Emerging from England in the nineteenth 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 sole. Imported. Select stores. Item CD559. Used
