Meet The Clasico in Black by Adelante, a men’s oxford dress shoe that blends traditional lines with modern, made-to-order craftsmanship. Handcrafted in Pastores, Guatemala, The Clasico in Black is Adelante’s contemporary take on the classic leather oxford.
Materials & Construction: The Clasico in Black is built from full-grain leather uppers with a sleek oxford vamp, leather lining, and a sturdy, dress-ready sole. A stacked heel and carefully shaped last create a flattering profile, while hand-finished edges and precise stitching highlight the artisan craftsmanship. The Goodyear-like, long-lasting build (based on Adelante’s dress shoe standards) is designed for years of wear with the option to resole when needed.
Why It’s Good: Adelante’s made-to-order, living-wage model ensures that each Clasico is crafted specifically for one wearer, reducing waste and valuing human labor. High-quality full-grain leather and a resolable construction help you keep one pair in service for years instead of constantly replacing lower-quality dress shoes. A black oxford is a wardrobe essential, and this version is built with longevity and ethics in mind.
Style Notes: Wear The Clasico in Black with suits for formal events, or with tailored trousers and a dress shirt for the office. It also sharpens dark denim and a blazer when you want a more polished smart-casual look.
