Oxford shoes are, together with the Blucher or Derby shoes, world leaders in classic style footwear, especially for men. They are also an essential part of what is known as the English style. They are easily identified due to the following characteristics:
Their most visible and recognisable element is the vamp sewn over the quarters. This fact differentiates it from the Blucher shoe or men's Derby, which has open eyelet tabs. This feature helps to make Oxford shoes a style of footwear that adjusts to the foot's anatomy. In addition, the sleekness of its design, without any exuberant decorations, makes the men's Oxford shoe one of the most suitable options when investing in elegance.
The different styles of men's Oxford shoes are characterised by their different degrees of decorative detail. Thus, we can find the following types:
Plain Oxford shoes, as their name suggests, do not have any decoration, while legate has some small perforations in the seams. Semi-brogues have perforations in the toe, and the seams, whilst the full-brogue adds a perforation on the sides. As we can see, it is a shoe that, although containing some decoration, always maintains a high degree of sobriety, given that the full-brogue Oxford shoe is, despite everything, less intense than that of other types of shoes.
Due to the elegance factor previously mentioned, the Oxford shoe is ideal for formal wear. However, more informal alternatives have emerged, adapting to the styles of the new generations and opting for rubber soles and more malleable leather, which give them freshness and notoriety. If we are looking to follow the more traditional line, the plain Oxford will help you to attain maximum levels of elegance. They combined with dark suits, medium grey suits, morning suits, tuxedos and blazers. Oxford brogues offer more possibilities to look elegant but with a more informal touch. They are ideal for wearing dark grey, blazers and casual suits. Nevertheless, there are no limits to a creative soul who loves craftsmanship. Men's Oxford shoes look perfect on anyone who wears them, offering a touch of panache and joy.
If the Oxford shoe fails to win you, we have a large variety of shoe styles that you can combine elegantly, like men's moccasins or men's buckle shoes.
The origin of Oxford shoes needs to be clarified, although there is consensus about their Scottish ancestry. In fact, before being given their current name, they were called Balmorals after the Scottish castle of Balmoral. Be that as it may, the truth is that their incredible warmth and resistance to moisture made them famous footwear for rangers and hunters.
Later, in the nineteenth century, Oxford students, in a sign of rebellion, began to wear this footwear, typically worn by the lower classes at the time, in place of the classic boot so modelled in the corridors of this emblematic university. Over time, this footwear has spread to all corners of the population so that nowadays, women's oxford shoes are firmly established in styles of all ages.
