Meet The Romero in Caramel by Adelante, a men’s Derby that softens the classic black dress shoe with warm caramel leather. Handcrafted in Pastores, Guatemala and made-to-order, The Romero in Caramel is a versatile choice for modern dress and business-casual wardrobes.
Materials & Construction: This Romero is built from full-grain leather in a rich caramel tone, cushioned insoles, leather lining, and a stacked leather heel. Goodyear-welted construction ensures a resoleable, durable sole that can handle years of wear. The Derby pattern with open lacing gives the shoe a slightly more relaxed fit and appearance than a traditional oxford, while still looking right at home with tailoring.
Why It’s Good: Made-to-order sizing, living-wage production, and full-grain leather make The Romero in Caramel a high-impact, low-waste alternative to fast-fashion dress shoes. Goodyear welts and stacked heels are chosen specifically so that repairs and resoles are worthwhile. The caramel color bridges chinos, denim, and suits, letting one pair fill multiple roles in your rotation.
Style Notes: Style The Romero in Caramel by Adelante with navy or grey suits for a slightly more relaxed look, or with chinos and an oxford for business-casual days. The warm leather also pairs beautifully with earth-toned knits and outerwear.
