Masterfully crafted Italian split leather, subtle height enhancement, and timeless elegance for a confident appearance.
The Azula™ | Ashford Oxford Derby redefines the classic men's shoe, bringing the pure essence of stylish craftsmanship to your everyday wardrobe. Designed for the modern man who wants to combine a sleek, elegant profile with a noticeably supple feel. Whether at a business meeting, in an upscale smart-casual setting, or enjoying a relaxed digestif in an exclusive lounge – this refined lace-up shoe adds a distinctive, luxurious touch to any outfit.
The centerpiece of this exclusive design is the finely grained, premium Italian split leather in a rich chestnut brown, effectively accentuated by contrasting hand-stitched decorative details and a stylish smooth leather element at the heel. The ergonomically padded interior and highly elastic latex insole adapt perfectly to the anatomy of your foot. In addition, the sophisticated layered sole design provides a subtle, invisible height increase (increasing height) without compromising on roll-over performance.

Styling tip from Azula™ Fashion
"The Ashford Oxford Derby is the perfect bridge between formality and casual style.
