Half-Brogues
Half-brogues are distinguished by a subtle pattern of perforations. They embody reserved elegance and pair nicely with suits. Usually they’re made of smooth calfskin.
Half-brogues are distinguished by a relatively subtle pattern of perforations. The only part of this type of men’s shoe that is decorated with Lyra perforation is the seam along the diagonally positioned toe cap. Half-brogues often feature Rosette perforation in the centre of the toe. Rarely are the edges of other parts of the shaft decorated with perforation or indentations.
Half-brogues usually feature open derby- or closed oxford-style lacing and are typically made of smooth calfskin, which makes them a good match for suits.
