The Plain Toe Blucher embodies the perfect smart-casual footwear. Bluchers feature an open-lacing system with a single-piece, one-cut vamp. These two features separate bluchers from Oxfords, with their closed-lacing system, and Derbies, which have quarter-panels connected to the vamp. These differences produce a sleek and stylish pair of Goodyear-welted shoes that are easily wearable at work or a night out.

Charles F. Stead's Berry Suede with its rich, deep purple hue, lend a touch of regality to any ensemble. This versatile color pairs effortlessly with dark indigo or black denim, providing a striking pop of color that elevates your overall look. The Berry suede can also be complemented by other neutrals like grey, brown, or even olive green, offering a range of options for creating stylish and sophisticated outfits. Whether dressing up for a night out or keeping it casual for a weekend brunch, the Berry Suede shoes from Charles F. Stead will surely become a go-to staple in your wardrobe.
