Product Specification

A sleek, square toe lace-up mounted on a single leather sole. This shoe is crafted in Italy, and the upper is cut from premium, Italian cow hide. The Reading II balances comfort and sophistication with a soft, padded collar, and a subtle, rolled-seam toe. The leather outsole is injected with rubber, ensuring a soft, comfortable stride that you’ll want to wear even after quitting time. This is a strong choice to wear with a cropped suit or khaki pants, and when it’s time to get them re-soled, the Blake-stitch construction makes the job easy on your cobbler.

THE MINIMALIST DERBY

Reworked with modern touches, the Reading II derby is a Gordon Rush classic. Coupled with tapered tailoring, this pair will easily transition from the boardroom to the bar.

US 7–13 in half sizes. Our shoes fit about a half size larger than most sneakers; if you sit between two, the size guide will settle it.

Wipe with a soft cloth, condition the leather every few months, and use cedar shoe trees between wears.
