High-instep formal shoes and boots

108 pairs
Curator's note

The term Derby or Gibson refers to the leather tabs that are sewn onto the top of the shoe or boot and the laces are then threaded through. This extra tab allows for much more room in the shoe and that makes this style much better for those with a high instep.
