For autumn, you need a pair of shoes that are warm enough to keep the temperatures up throughout the cold autumnal temperatures and sturdy enough to withstand rain. Having a pair of chunky Derby's, Chelsea boots or loafers in your shoe collection will give you a solid foundation this autumn and late summer. It's always a good idea to vary your shoes and allow your shoes to rest between uses, preferably with shoe trees to maintain the fit. For the autumn it is also important to treat your shoes to protect them from slush, moisture and salt. Read here how to take care of your quality shoes.

Here, we've carefully selected another welted Derby variant, but this time in the form of a smooth brown suede Derby. The coarse latex rubber sole from Brazil's Para keeps the autumn's rainly weather at bay. Style them with a pair of folded-up selvedge jeans.

Classical Chelsea boots

The name originates from Chelsea, which was a trendy fashionable area in the 50s and 60s, and has since made the Chelsea boot a classic. With the finest calfskin upper, these Chelsea boots give a smooth and stylish feel. A slightly higher top is well suited to the season, while the elastic strap makes it easy to slip on and off. The Church's solid rubber heel is constructed of multiple layers for shock absorption and water repellency.

Split Toed Derby's

These brown Derby's come in a slightly more dressy version, thanks to a more streamlined construction and a split toe. Edward Green handmakes these shoes in the UK's shoemaking capital of Northampton.
