No. 624 is a classic lace-up boot with an avant-garde touch. The Goodyear-welted, cap-toe Derby boot has a storied past, one that extends even further back in time than those of the Oxford and Derby shoe. In the 14th and 15th centuries, men’s boots were particularly popular in France. Their popularity grew with the spread of equestrian sports. Today, lace-up boots like this black cap-toe Derby boot are stylish footwear staples, and not just during the cold, wet times of the year.
