A Derby is a model with open lacing whose side parts are stitched on the upper leather. The front part seamlessly moves into the tongue. The origin of this model is attributable to a shoe maker from the english small city Derby. He built them on request of horse riders, as they wanted to have a lacing shoe with an easy instep. In consequence he invented the open lacing shoe.
The Derby is optimal in use for wide feets with a high Instep. Outside stitchings and decoration elements soften the robust character of the shoe.
