N° 5436 details
The Goodyear Flex design gives this classic shoe exceptional flexibility in the forefoot area. Together with the comfortable footbed, this handcrafted Derby guarantees the highest in wearer comfort. Tasteful accents also set this men's shoe apart visually, making it the right choice for a modern dress code!
An elaborate hand finish across the entire supple calfskin upper provides fascinating light-dark shades and a fabulous shine. The heel, orange inner lining and insole, as well as the dark red leather outsole, also provide for high breathability and durability. While the color details only become apparent upon closer inspection, both the decorated wing cap and the ornamental decoration on the front are unmistakable, supporting the dynamics of this distinctive, full-leather shoe for men.
Brogue Derby
The five-eyelet lacing and curved wing cap are typical for this shoe. The front has an ornamental perforation. The balancing act between dynamic chic and discreet elegance defines its versatility.
Italian Last
The Italian last is distinguished by a dynamically tapering front section, while the ball of the foot enjoys ample space. The last fits closely against the midfoot area and then flows into a pleasantly rounded heel. Suitable for narrow to average feet.
Soft Calf
Our soft calf leather is a predominantly vegetable-tanned, fully dyed leather upper from Italy whose open porosity makes the colours of subsequently applied dyes really pop. An elaborate hand finish makes this soft calf leather even more exquisite. One-of-a-kind in our collection.
Hand Finish
The calfskin is dyed at the tannery, but it is the intensive work that is done with the leather by hand at the manufactory – the hand finish – that creates the exciting contrasts and shadows that give this Italian calfskin its unique look.
Goodyear Flex Construction
The Goodyear Flex models get their exceptional flexibility from their special Sacchetto design. The sole of this model is bound to the lining using a special seam. This creates a little bag in the midfoot area, which gives it the name 'sacchetto'. The highlight of our Goodyear Flex models is that, unlike other Sacchetto models, they are also Goodyear welted.
General information about our formal shoe collection
Handcrafted
Mass-produced shoes are glued together on assembly lines. All of our premium, full-leather shoes, on the other hand, are handcrafted to the finest standards of quality. You can see and feel the difference.
Full-Leather Shoes
The high quality of these shoes is reflected in their high leather content. Their uppers, lining, insoles, and outsoles are made from the finest leather. They even have leather heels, made by painstakingly stacking thin layers of leather on top of one another.
Construction
These shoes consist of roughly 65 separate parts. They took about 210 steps to assemble. We rely upon premium materials and traditional production methods to ensure that our footwear is of the absolute highest quality.
Gentleman's Corner
These shoes come equipped with a so-called "gentleman's corner". This is a small notch cut from the inside corner of the heel. This has a practical purpose—it prevents your trouser leg from catching on your shoe.
Breathable
This shoe boasts a high proportion of leather, and has been assembled without the use of adhesive bonding—both of these factors ensure proper air circulation and prevent moisture from penetrating the surface. Dry, well-ventilated feet are healthy feet.
Delivery Content
Of course, our focus is on your new pair of shoes. But to underline our passion for our products, we enclose a few extras in your shipment. We hope that sparks your excitement about your new footwear.
Shoebox
Our passion for our products is reflected in their packaging. All of our shoes come in an elegant black shoebox emblazoned with the SHOEPASSION.com logo. Said shoebox is easy to open, thanks to a special opening on the side, and comes with a note on our philosophy.
Spare Shoe Laces
Should you find yourself in need of new shoelaces, look no further: this pair of Goodyear-welted shoes comes with a spare pair of shoelaces. Made of 100% cotton and treated with wax, these shoelaces are of the very best quality.
Shoe Bag
These shoes come stored inside two shoe bags, packed into a shoebox. Shoe bags are a great way to maintain their condition—they protect your footwear from soiling and scratching. They also let you transport your shoes in style.

SHOEPASSION - ONE STEP FURTHER
Made in EU
While most of our peers in the shoe industry are still unable to guarantee shoes that are »made in the EU«, we’re able to prove that our shoes are just that. We use leather from France and Germany, manufacture our shoes in Spain, and run distribution and logistics in Germany—our shoes are 100% made in Europe.
Environmentally sustainable
For many companies, all that matters are the profits; they fail to take notice of the disastrous conditions under which hides are taken in Bangladesh, or shoes are manufactured in China. We turn instead to traditional European tanneries and Spanish craftsmanship, to the benefit of man and nature alike.
Pricing
Our promise: since you’re purchasing directly from the manufacturer, you’re spared the typical high margins. You’re also spared the additional cost of paying for a brand name. Thanks to our advantageous wide reach and our low cost structure, we’re able to offer sensationally low prices.
Transparency
From the provenance and treatment of the leather we use, to the conditions in our Spanish factory, to delivery with our logistics partner, we don’t leave any stone unturned. We provide copious, transparent information on every step in our supply chain.
Our team
SHOEPASSION.com was founded by a pair of shoe lovers, and each and every employee focuses on satisfying our shoe-loving customers.

The values we live by
Lots of brands are quick to conceal the production methods behind their products, as well as the origins of the materials they use. We, on the other hand, have nothing to hide. From the very beginning, our products have been »Made in the EU«, in the classic sense. As such, we treat both our fellow man and the natural environment in a way that’s ecologically sustainable and ethically responsible. Each step on our supply chain is entirely transparent for you to see—that’s a promise we’re happy to stand by.
