Part of the Robert family, Bobby is comfortable and hard-wearing and has the timeless look of a stylish derby shoe. The Bobby Derby shoe can be identified by its “open” lacing system, meaning that its eyelet tabs are stitched on top of the shoe’s vamp.
With its “open lace” construction, the bobby is suitable for a wider fit and higher in-step. This ensures more comfort compared to an Oxford shoe which has a tighter lacing system.
The Bobby is classic and comfortable and like many of our styles they are very suitable for formal occasions and their sleek and simplistic appearance lends itself well to casual and smart casual outfits. As such, derby shoes can work just as well with a pair of jeans as they can with wool trousers.
This limited release embodies the essence of craftsmanship, care, and heritage. Goodyear welted and built to last, each pair is not just a purchase, but a piece of history.
Due to the limited amount of shells available, this release is offered exclusively in limited sizes. We apologise to those who require sizes outside of this range.
Cordovan leather is a high-quality, durable, and lustrous leather made from the flat muscle (or "shell") beneath the hide on the rump of a horse. Known for its rich color and smooth finish, cordovan leather is prized for its distinctive texture, glossy appearance, and ability to develop a deep patina over time making it perfect for our shoes & boots.

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.
This last has been used for decades. It is part of our history and character as England's oldest shoe manufacturer.

It's inevitable that shoes will need a bit of TLC from time to time but look after them and they will last you a lifetime. We offer a fully inclusive repair service from re-heeling to total makeovers.
Our uncompromising standards of craftsmanship, honest materials, environmentalism and sustainability are values that have been preserved and developed through five generations.
Every material used in our construction can be traced back to its source.
Every pair of Tricker’s shoes and boots is 100% made in Northampton, the historic centre of British shoemaking. From cutting the leather to the final polish, each stage takes place under one roof at our St Michael’s Road factory, following a time-honoured process refined over generations. It’s here that traditional skills, patience and precision come together, ensuring every pair carries the integrity, durability and character that Northampton-made footwear is known for.
