Men's Brogue Shoes with Perforated Detailing
Classic shoe models with that special something
Brogues are among the most impressive shoes that men can use to express their good taste and attention to detail through their feet. These lace-up shoes are characterized by finely crafted perforated patterns. In general, these works of art are divided into semi-brogues and full-brogues.
Brogues: Holes with Function and as Statement
Brogue shoes have their origins in Scotland and Ireland, where they were worn by shepherds and farmers. They have been a popular type of footwear for several centuries. The shepherds would drill holes in their shoes to allow water from the marshy ground to drain out and to help the shoes dry quickly. The characteristic hole patterns, also known as "broguing," not only give these shoes a unique look, but also serve their original purpose - providing better ventilation for the feet and draining water. Nowadays, they are mostly worn by men in suits or jeans, rather than in the shepherd business.
Diverse Shoe Models for Every Occasion
The brogue shoes available for men today only have the hole pattern as decoration and the holes are no longer continuous. Instead, the additional shaft parts are decorated with a hole pattern to embellish the shoe. Usually, a toe cap and a heel cap are attached, and the shaft varies depending on the model from particularly deep to ankle-covering.
Characteristic of Brogues is also that they are exclusively lace-up shoes. These premium shoes are mostly classic men's shoes and are used differently depending on their structure. While the Halfbrogue or Semibrogue can be worn with a suit, the Fullbrogue belongs more to the category of sporty shoes and is therefore more commonly paired with casual clothing.
