Hi Guys,
I'm considering ordering a pair of Edward Greens in Black Suede. I like the idea of a 2 -3 eyelet derby. It would most likely be the 888 last, but possibly the 202 in C width. I would wear this with gray suits and trousers and occasionally for black tie events. I know the latter is not 100% proper, but I like having options.
I'm curious what your preference is between the two in Black Suede:
Holborn - 2 eyelet derby with a more traditional placement of stitching that meets the welt. I would wear these with standard laces and not the tassels.
Farringdon - 3 eyelet derby with a more modern sweeping placement of stitching that meets the welt.
