Saddle Shoe Style

The saddle shoe is a type of oxford or derby shoe defined by its distinctive two-piece construction. Its most recognizable feature is a contrasting piece of leather—the "saddle"—that is stitched over the instep of the shoe, sitting in the middle. While most famously seen in a white-and-black or white-and-brown combination, this two-tone design gives the shoe a unique and instantly recognizable look.
