Floris van Bommel

Details

Product details

This smooth derby boot is part of the classic Van Bommel collection. The shoe has been made using the Blake method. The sole sports a fine anti-slip tread. The sole is made of vegetable-tanned leather that is hand-treated with a stylish blue finish. The heel is divided into two sections by an elegant dovetail joint. The part that gets the most wear when walking is made of durable rubber, while the adjacent part is made of the same vegetable-tanned leather as the midsole. The heel is slightly sanded to prevent it from getting caught on the hem of the trousers. On the side of the sole edge, two very fine notches have been carved into the top and bottom. The upper edge of the leather shoe is luxuriously finished with thin black piping. On the side of the shoe, right next to the upper lace hole, the shoe is embossed with the iconic copper VB logo. The lining is entirely made of high-quality calf leather. This shoe is made of beautiful classic, taupe-coloured suede from a suede tannery based in Castelfranco di Sotto in the Pisa region of Italy. The suede has a short-cropped nap and an elegant shading effect.

“A timeless expression of the almost three centuries”

Floris about this item:

“With the emergence of the sneaker as a leisure shoe, the shoe world and shoe design gained significant momentum. At least, that’s what you might think. In our archives, we still have bulky design books by our modelers from the beginning of the last century. Each book contains hundreds of design sketches for classic shoes. In the classic segment, there was almost as much variety and experimenting in those days as there is today when it comes to sneakers. It was just the bandwidth for variation which was smaller, so more attention was paid to minute details. With the emergence of the 'Floris van Bommel' brand, we created space for our 'Van Bommel' brand to focus on an exclusively classic collection. Since then, we’ve been curating very carefully and with a lot of love which styles will and which won’t fit into the classic 'Van Bommel' collection. For a dress shoe, it’s all about the details, more so than for a pair of trendy sneakers. The roundness of the last, the size of the stitching on the sole rim, the level of sheen of the leather, the feel of the calfskin lining; minute differences make or break a shoe. The 'Van Bommel' collection is a timeless expression of the almost three centuries that our company has been dedicated to making shoes. Should you decide to purchase a pair, we hope you’ll enjoy the craftsmanship!”
