This split-toe derby has an elegant, stitched centre seam a the toe. The hatch grain leather uppers are sourced from the Horween tannery in Chicago, USA.

The shoes also feature a narrow waist, bark-tanned leather soles, and are cut in a way to be elegant. Each shoe is hand-welted and hand-stitched, which renders them flexible and comfortable to wear.

Hand-welted Construction

Hand-stitched Outsoles

Y07 Last

  • Hand-welted Construction

    In contrast to Goodyear or cement welting, hand-welting is a labour intensive process that results in a lighter and more comfortable shoe. The uppers are held on the last for an average of three full days.

  • Bark-tanned Soles

    As a standard feature, all Yearn shoes have premium leather soles that have been bark-tanned. Every outsole is also hand-stitched, which extends the number of possible resoles.
