THE CROCUS DERBY
Pure and timeless, the Crocus Derby owes its longevity to the very essence of its simplicity. Free from ornament or excess, it embodies the brand’s authenticity, far from any ostentation. Crafted using the original Norwegian welt technique and shaped from exceptional leathers sourced from an Alsatian tannery, it reflects a sincere vision where excellence and restraint meet in perfect harmony.

A SINGULAR DUALITY
The Crocus model embodies the union of craftsmanship and durability.
Its construction, executed using the Norwegian welt, the brand’s original savoir-faire, gives it remarkable strength and water resistance, while allowing for resoling, a true guarantee of exceptional longevity.


THE ART OF DETAIL
Lined with natural calfskin, this shoe features a Ravel rubber sole that ensures optimal comfort and perfect grip for everyday wear.
Its Odéon last, gently rounded with a generous fit, conveys a relaxed elegance, that of a shoe designed to last and to accompany every step with confidence.

THE MEMORY OF CRAFT
For over 90 years, our shoes have been crafted where it all began, in our family workshop in Alsace. This place of heritage continues to uphold the signature expertise of authentic Norwegian and Goodyear welting, techniques already in use when we outfitted the French ski team for the 1968 Grenoble Olympic Games.
This artisanal, precise, and demanding craftsmanship requires rare expertise, from assembly to finishing. It gives each pair its own unique character, along with a level of comfort and durability recognized by connoisseurs and lovers of fine products alike.
