Robert Derby Shoe
The dressier Tricker’s Derby: clean, sturdy and intentionally comfortable.
Prices are a snapshot from when this page was built — confirm on the retailer's site.
Story & heritage
Tricker’s explains Robert through its open-lacing system, with the eyelet tabs stitched on top of the vamp. The brand also links that construction to comfort for a wider fit and higher instep.
Robert is the city side of the Tricker’s archive: less rural than the country shoes, but still hard-wearing and recognisably English in its Derby proportions.
Materials & craft
The official Robert page identifies the open-lace construction as the core feature. In Burgundy Burnished leather, the shoe keeps a polished surface while retaining the practical Derby architecture.
How to choose & style
Robert belongs with tailoring, flannel, dark denim and knitwear. Burgundy burnished leather is especially good with navy, grey, olive and camel; black versions read more formal.
