The Dries Van Noten Derby Shoe isn't the traditional bucks men are used to. All business on top and party on the bottom, it has the look of a classic dress shoe, but the soles have been revamped with a camouflage pattern that will greatly appeal to stylish young men wanting to look dapper without compromising their edgy existence.
Made in Italy using premium leather, the Dries Van Noten Derby Shoe boasts a plain upper with tone on tone stitching and black laces that contrasts nicely with the customized, camouflage colored sole. Sleek and simple despite the added army touch, the shoes could easily be rocked semi-casually on a sunny Sunday stroll or at a full-out professional board meeting at the office--at least for those looking to make a memorable statement.
