Product Insights

This Simons exclusive derby, designed in Canada, uses open-lace quarters to adjust for high arches, wide forefeet, and orthotics, while a padded footbed and flexible rubber outsole deliver all-day comfort and wet traction from day one. Its corrected-grain top-grain leather with polished coating hides scuffs—black stays dark, chocolate deepens with age. Cement construction provides a sleeker, welt-free profile but makes the sole non-replaceable, limiting longevity. Care involves brushing after each wear, conditioning every few months, and cream polish every 5–10 wears; shoe trees prevent permanent creasing. Signature storage bags and extra laces add over $20 in value.
