Style guide
Wearing the Oxford with style
Black leather is a natural accompaniment to formal suits. Brown and cognac patinas offer more depth with a blue or grey suit, or for a more relaxed silhouette.
Choosing wisely
Shape, size and level of formality
A straight tip remains understated and versatile. A more tapered shape accentuates elegance, while a pronounced brogue adds more personality. Always check the instructions specific to the model.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
The essential answers before choosing your pair of Oxfords.
What is the difference between an Oxford and a Derby shoe?
The Oxford has a closed lacing system that gives it a cleaner and generally more formal line. The Derby features an open lacing system and an often more relaxed look.
Which size should I choose for my Oxfords?
Refer to the size guide and model-specific instructions. The pair should hold the foot without excessive compression or slipping at the heel.
What color should I wear with a suit?
Black is suitable for the most formal occasions. Dark brown pairs well with navy blue and grey, while cognac creates more contrast.
Cap toe or wingtip: which one to choose?
The Cap Toe, with its stitched-on toe cap, remains understated and versatile. The Wingtip stands out with its brogue perforations and a more expressive signature.
How do you care for smooth or patina leather?
Dust off the pair, apply a care product suitable for their color and finish, then buff gently. Avoid direct heat sources.
How do shipping and returns work?
Standard delivery is free. Your order is processed within 24 to 72 business hours, then delivered in approximately 10 business days after shipment (estimated timeframe). Returns accepted within 30 days; return shipping costs are at the customer's expense.
