Meet The Marco in Desert by Adelante, a men’s cap-toe derby that brings Goodyear-welted durability to a light, desert-toned leather. Handcrafted in Guatemala and made-to-order, this Marco is a fresh alternative to traditional brown dress shoes.
Materials & Construction: The Marco in Desert features full-grain leather uppers in a soft sand shade, leather lining, a cap toe, and round cotton laces. A stacked leather heel and Goodyear-welted sole create a resolable, long-lasting base, while the dress sole is engineered for daily comfort. Clean lines and understated cap-toe detailing give this shoe a modern, minimal feel despite its traditional construction.
Why It’s Good: Made-to-order production, living-wage jobs, and full-grain leather make The Marco in Desert a strong choice for conscious shoppers. Goodyear welts and stacked leather heels are repair-friendly, which means you can maintain these shoes through multiple resoles rather than disposing of them. The desert color works especially well with lighter tailoring and casual looks, allowing one pair to serve across seasons and settings.
Style Notes: Style The Marco in Desert by Adelante with light grey or navy suits for a modern contrast, or with olive chinos and a white shirt for more relaxed days. The pale leather brings a contemporary edge to classic office outfits.
