Shoe Knowledge

The Derby Shoe

A derby shoe is characterised by open lacing, which means that the eyelets for the shoelaces are sewn on top of the vamp (the upper part of the boot). This type of lacing allows the boot to be adjusted for a comfortable fit and makes it easier to put on and take off than a boot with closed lacing, such as an Oxford.

LAST NO: W2298

This last has been used for decades. It is part of our history and character as England's oldest shoe manufacturer. The size (length fitting) of Tricker’s footwear made on this last (W2298) is true to size, we recommend sticking to your regular UK Size. If you are unsure of your UK size, use our size guide to convert your known size to a UK size.

Calf Leather

Calf leather is finer grained, and lighter in weight than the hide of older cattle. This means that it is also more supple. It is also very durable in comparison to its thickness.

I'm a fan- great casual shoe

"Were a little tight on the width but relaxed after wearing them around house and feel great. Great color and Trickers customer service was responsive when I reached out with a few questions."

"Well, they're brilliant. That's all."

Robert Derby Shoe

"Fantastic purchase and definitely will look forward to wearing it for many memories and years to come. Runs slightly larger as I based on the size chart to order but feel my feet swimming in the shoe, added a thin insole but then felt too tight (should eventually work as the shoe tends to expand over a day of wearing) Thinking if I should size down for my next purchase and would definitely have stronger reservations on buying a loafer which all look great but I’m sure won’t fit for me based on the current size I bought."

Kenneth S. (5/5)

Amazing Pair of Shoes

"The shoes are very stylish, they work well pair of jeans or pair of wool pants. Whenever I wear these shoes to the pub or around town I get compliments or people ask where I purchased these shoes. I love the last in these shoes that I purchased in Brown as well and have had compliments on them as well."

Robert Derby Shoe - Ciligio (Cherry) Castorino Sue

"Just purchased my first pair of Tricker's shoes. Wow!! Really great presentation in the box, complete with shoe bags. Colour is really lovely, as is the suede nap and finish. How do they fit? Brilliantly. I'm a 9 (EU 43) and they're a great fit. Almost don't know that I've got them on. Won't be my last pair of Tricker's shoes."
