Laced boat shoes for men: Sebago and TBS

The Sebago Docksides, Portland, and Ranger boat shoes, from the American brand born in Maine, and the leather boat shoes TBS Phenis, from the French brand, lace up like a derby: the boat shoe is worn with chinos or shorts.

Derby or oxford: how to choose

On the oxford, the quarters are sewn under the vamp and the lacing stays closed: it's the shoe for dark suits. On the derby, they are sewn over and the flaps open: easier to adjust, it goes with jeans or chinos. The black oxford remains the formal shoe.

Derbies and oxfords: the full selection

The derbies and oxfords also include women's models, including platform derbies: the women's derby plays with the masculine-feminine style.

Colours of men's derbies and occasions

The black derby in smooth leather is worn with a dark suit and for ceremonies; the brown, more versatile, goes with chinos, dark jeans, or light suits; the suede derby or those with serrated soles are kept for the weekend. The black derby is regularly polished to keep its shine, while the brown develops a patina over time with tinted creams. A bordeaux derby or one in grain leather adds character to a simple outfit, with dark jeans or corduroy trousers, and socks that match the colour of the trousers to elongate the leg. The white or beige derby is reserved for light summer outfits, paired with a linen suit. A round-toed derby is easier to wear daily than a pointed-toed model.

Brown, bordeaux or black men’s derbies, ankle derbies

The brown men's derbies, from cognac to chocolate, pair well with grey, navy blue, or beige trousers. Bordeaux derbies, being more original, are worn with a blue suit; black derbies remain the choice for dark outfits and ceremonies. Ankle derbies, between city shoes and ankle boots, cover the ankle in winter, and suede derbies are worn on the weekend with jeans.

Frequently asked questions about men's derbies

What size of derbies should I choose?

Your usual size: the open lacing of the derby adjusts to the volume of the foot. The heel should not slip, and the toe should have a slight space in front of the big toe, indicating a good fit.

Derbies with jeans, how to do it?

A brown leather derby or one with a thick sole goes well with dark or raw jeans, with the hem resting on the shoe. With rolled-up jeans, plain socks make the transition.

How do I polish leather derbies?

Dust them off, apply a cream in the colour of the leather, let it absorb, then use a wax for shine, buffed with a soft cloth. Shoe trees maintain their shape between wears.

What socks to wear with derbies?

In the colour of the trousers for a suit, plain or with subtle patterns with chinos. The socks should be tall enough not to show skin when sitting: mid-calf socks are suitable for suits.

Derbies for a wedding?

For a dark suit, a black smooth leather oxford remains the most formal; a smooth and polished leather derby is suitable for a more relaxed wedding outfit. The wedding shoe should be tried before the big day.
