Flat shoes are varied. There are models with different types of fasteners and the shape of the sock. Today, lace-up shoes are very popular: derby, brogues, oxfords. They are very similar in appearance, but still have slight differences.

• The main distinguishing feature of Oxfords is that they are tightly sewn into the base, and the laces themselves are hidden under the tongue. In general, they are created for official receptions and special occasions. These are classic low shoes that come in exclusively black or brown. They are sewn only from smooth or patent leather, the use of other materials is excluded.

• The derby has open laces with lace trims sewn into the sides and can be pulled apart by putting on and laced up the boot. They come in different colors, combined options are often found. They do not have to be worn with a business suit; jeans, chinos, joggers and other casual wear are quite acceptable. Derby can be made not only from leather, but also from suede, nubuck and other materials. This is an invariable attribute of casual style.

• If the boots have perforations, they are brogues. In fact, this is a kind of Oxfords, so today you can find combined models - oxford brogues or derby brogues.

Monks are another flat-soled shoe, but without laces, but with one or two buckles. Initially, they were sewn from textiles, which made the boots durable and reliable. They were worn mainly by people belonging to the clergy, which is why they received such a name (from the English "monk" - monk).

They are absolutely not afraid of moisture, so they are ideal for slushy and rainy weather. However, they are breathable and therefore not recommended to be worn on a daily basis.
