These have been worn three or four times for short days, but have two left heels that will need to be replaced to be worn comfortably - Other than that they're awesome shoes. I've replaced them with a new pair that has a different sole, and I don't really have room for these. The horsehide is a beautiful color with some natural variegation, and it really comes alive when brushed (it responds to brushing more than any other leather I've ever owned).

Details:
  • Maker: Truman
  • Shoe Name: Maronne Derby
  • Design: Derby
  • Size 12 D
  • Construction: Stitchdown
  • Leather: Brown horsehide
  • Lining: Glove leather
  • Welt: None
  • Last: Truman last ??
  • Lacing: 5 eyelets
  • Hardware: Antique brass
  • Sole: leather sole
  • Details: Structured toe
They're rustic and clearly hand-made in a small shop, which is part of what makes them cool. Don't expect them to look like factory-made products.

They fit very much TTS, and are reasonably generous for a D width. They have a suede heel liner that is really cool and comfortable. They'll come waxed laces as well as leather laces.


Two left heels (soles now have some minimal wear of course)



Day one:



Most recent wear:



Asking $285 plus shipping.
