Belmonte Dark Tan

Deer Leather Derby Brogues
Our Belmonte is a formal brogue with a deceptively high level of comfort. It is made in our artisan Italian factory on a Bologna construction, which uses a soft leather ‘sock’, instead of the normal stiff insole board, and a deerskin upper – renowned for its supple comfort.

Our Belmonte is a formal brogue with a deceptively high level of comfort. It is made in our artisan Italian factory on a Bologna construction, which uses a soft leather ‘sock’, instead of the normal stiff insole board, and a deerskin upper – renowned for its supple comfort. Layers of colour are then applied by hand and meticulously polished, giving the dark tan a depth of colour and individual patina. We have used a slightly squared toe giving a retro 1950s look on a leather sole with a rubber OS thumbprint top piece sole, with a full calf leather lining and insock.

The Bologna Construction
This Italian speciality dates from the early 1900s. The upper is stitched to a soft leather sock rather than a traditional insole board, to form a 'glove'. This is then Blake Stitched from the inside of the shoe to the sole. The resultant sleek profile produces an exceptionally comfortable formal shoe.
