The Windsor – Cognac Camouflage Patina Wingtip Derby

A distinguished expression of traditional shoemaking, The Windsor is designed for gentlemen who appreciate heritage craftsmanship with a distinctive and artistic character. Featuring a rich cognac camouflage patina, this wingtip Derby combines classic brogue detailing with beautifully blended tonal variations, creating a bold yet sophisticated presence.

Expertly handcrafted by skilled artisans, each pair is made from premium high-grain crust cowhide leather and individually hand-finished to create its unique camouflage-inspired patina. Deep cognac, warm brown, and subtle darker tones blend across the leather, giving the upper remarkable depth and character. As each pair is finished by hand, no two pairs carry exactly the same pattern or tonal variation.

Handwelted Goodyear Construction

The Windsor is built using Goodyear welt construction, entirely done by hand—also known as handwelted construction. This traditional shoemaking technique securely joins the upper, insole, welt, and outsole, creating a highly durable and structurally sound foundation.

The full leather sole is attached to the welt, allowing the shoe to be resoled while preserving its original structure. Combined with the stacked leather heel, this construction reflects the heritage of fine handmade footwear and is designed to develop greater character with wear.
