Oxford shoes
It’s not foreignising, it’s calling a spade a spade. When it comes to footwear, two great families hold an empire with its ramifications, each with interpretations and variations that have followed trends over the years: the Oxford and the Derby.
What’s the difference between Oxford and Derby shoes?
The Oxford model has a closed toe, while the Derby has an open toe. In the latter, the holes on the sides offer the possibility of greater openness in the instep.
Where did Oxford shoes come from?
They were born as a boot at Oxford University in the mid-17th century, but it was the academics who turned them into the model they are known for today.
If they were initially associated with academicism and tradition, they quickly made the leap from uniforms to the contemporary wardrobe, among proposals of various models, colours and even heels!
Until the 19th century, the Oxford shoe was only worn by men, but nowadays it’s a staple in women’s looks.
