The Alan model is certainly one of the most versatile. Unlike Oxford shoes, the Derby consists of inner and outer panels that meet at the tongue and vamp. It features an open lacing system that is particularly well-suited for people with a high instep. The Derby is named after Edward Smith, Stanley, 14th Earl of Derby and British Prime Minister in the 19th century, who found the lacing of the Oxford (or rather the Oxford) uncomfortable. His shoemaker made him a pair of shoes with open lacing, and that is how the Derby was born!
