Two-tone patinated leather Callan Derbies – city shoes
The Callan derby shoes feature a two-tone finish and patinated leather to add character to the classic dress shoe. The model is presented in full-grain cowhide with a burnished finish, complemented by decorative brogue-style details. Its tapered toe and lacing give it a dressier line, while the two color combinations avoid the overly uniform effect of a traditional black shoe.
The lining is made of lambskin and the insole of cowhide. The outsole is rubber. Unlike several glued models in the source catalog, Callan is indicated as having a stitched construction. This feature, combined with the leather upper and decorative perforations, makes it a suitable option for those looking for patinated leather derbies, two-tone dress shoes, and lace-up shoes for the office or a ceremony.
Two colors are available: Black and Russet Brown. The black version maintains a more formal look, while the russet brown highlights the variations in the leather's shade more prominently. Sizes range from 38 to 45. The supplier recommends the model for spring and autumn. Callan can be worn with a suit, pleated trousers, dress chinos, or dark denim when a more expressive pair than a plain derby is desired.
For care, dust the leather with a soft brush and apply a product compatible with smooth leather in a light layer. On a patinated finish, avoid overly abundant applications that could uniformize the shades. Allow to air dry. Callan is particularly distinguished by its combination of patinated leather, stitched construction, brogue details, and two-tone palette: a dress shoe designed to add depth without excessive ornamentation.
