The easy one, in the colour for the lighter half of the year. An open-laced Derby opens wider than an Oxford, so it slips on without a fight and gives a higher instep somewhere comfortable to go, which is exactly why it's the shoe most guys actually reach for on a normal day. The warm tan calf plays with khaki, off-white denim and linen-season tailoring, takes a shine when you want one and looks just as right knocked back and casual. It's welted and built to last, and it sits at a price that makes it an easy first good pair or a hard-working second one.
Stocked in an F (regular) fitting. Fits true to size on the last; if you're between sizes, take the half-size down. Sizes shown are US; tap UK or EU in the chart below to convert.
Sizes on our site are shown in US. Loake is an English maker — tap UK or EU to switch the primary column and read your size across. EU sizes are whole numbers only (Loake makes no EU half sizes), so a US/UK half size shares the EU number shown — order the whole EU. Fits true to size on the last; if you're between sizes, take the half-size down.
Need a half size or a different width? We can special-order it. Loake makes these in E (narrow), F (regular), G (wide) and H (extra-wide), and every half size. Special orders carry a $30 minimum fee and are placed every two to three weeks at our discretion. Ask us in store or reach out and we'll get you on the next order.
