Palmazo Derby shoes
With a more relaxed demeanor compared to the Oxford style, the Derby features an open lacing system that allows for easy adjustment and comfort. In this design, the quarters are elegantly sewn atop the vamp, creating a distinct visual contrast. The Derby shoe is a timeless classic that seamlessly blends tradition and modernity, making it an ideal choice for both casual outfits and more formal attire when paired with a suit and tie. Whether you're dressing for a weekend brunch or an important business meeting, the Palmazo Derby shoes offer versatility and style.

Comparing Shoes
When comparing two different shoes you should know that, despite their external differences, the inner shape is the key element when it comes to fitting.
See below a comparison between two Wholecut shoes as an example, both with the same size (42 EU).
The one on the left is made using the Zurigo Last (rounded toe) and the other one uses the Monti Last (long chisel toe).
As you can see, the long and narrow toe shape of the Monti last generates a larger blind / unused space at the toe. How much space you have in front of the toe varies depending on the type of shoe and its toe shape.
That is why, even though the shoe on the right is 1 cm longer (total length measured from the heel to the tip of the toe) both shoes are effectively the same size.
Admittedly, there's no point in comparing the fitting of two different shoes only based on their total length.
