Oxford shoes

Whether plain or studded, the Oxford is one of the most elegant lace-up shoes for men. Plain Oxfords tend to go best with any outfit. This type of shoe originates from the north of Great Britain and Ireland and owes its name to the University of Oxford, where they were widely worn by students in the early 19th century.

Oxfords go well with everything, with suits, with jeans, with chinos, with very formal looks and with more casual styles. Ideal for formal events but also for going out to party.

At José de Mora we have several models of Oxford shoes handcrafted in our workshop, following artisanal techniques and using the best leathers. You can take a look at our online store.

Here we can see our Oxford model “Seville”:

Blucher shoes

Blucher shoes are similar to Oxfords, so they also retain the British style. The main difference lies in the flaps where the laces are inserted. In Bluchers these flaps are open, while in Oxfords they are closed, that is, attached to the rest of the shoe. Both Bluchers and Oxfords can be decorated with brogue-style stitching. They are most commonly made of leather in black, brown or chocolate tones, although they can be found in other colours and fabrics.

If you are looking for a high quality Blucher, handcrafted using traditional techniques and using the best quality leather, at José de Mora we offer you an interesting selection: Blucher shoes.
