Van Bommel Matra 30145 men's lace-up shoe in dark cognac. This smooth-bladed derby shoe is part of the classic Van Bommel collection. This is an extra-wide model. The last has an I-width and features a removable insole. The shoe is made using the Blake construction method. Two very fine hairlines are milled into the side of the sole edge for decorative purposes. The upper is made of top-quality black calf leather, sourced from a tannery in Montorso Vicentino, Vicenze, Italy. The decades-old copper "VB" is stamped into the leather on the outside of the shoe at the top eyelet. The lining is made of high-quality calf leather.
Floris van Bommel on the Matra men's shoe
With the rise of the sneaker as a casual shoe, the shoe world and shoe design gained momentum. Or so you'd think. In our archives, we have hefty design books from our modelers dating back to the early 20th century. Each book contains hundreds of design drawings for classic shoes. In the classic segment, there was almost as much variety and experimentation back then as there is now with sneakers. The range of variation was, however, smaller, so more attention was paid to minimal details. With the rise of the Floris van Bommel brand, our Van Bommel brand had the opportunity to return to the pure essence of a classic collection. Since then, we've been curating with great care and attention to which styles do and don't fit within the classic Van Bommel style. Much more than with a pair of trendy sneakers, every detail is decisive. The curve of the last, the size of the stitch on the edge of the sole, the sheen of the leather, the feel of the calf lining—mindful differences make or break The shoe. The Van Bommel collection is a timeless culmination of the nearly three centuries that our company has been making shoes. If you decide to buy a pair, enjoy the craftsmanship.
