Among the classic shoe models for women, leather derbies come first. Often compared to classic moccasins, women's derbies still have their differentiating characteristics.
The derby takes its origins in England. It was Edward Smith-Stanley, the 14th Earl of Derby, who was the first to wear the formal shoe. Finding the lacing of the Richelieu model uncomfortable, he asked his shoemaker to make a shoe with open laces so that he could put them on more easily. The derby was born in the 19th century.
