Brogues, often known as wingtips in the United States, are low-heeled shoes made of heavy leather, originating in Scotland and Ireland as a coarse, usually untanned leather shoe. The term wingtip derives from the toe cap pattern, which forms a W and resembles the profile of spreading bird wings.Through out my life i have ran away from the wing tip for various reason. I thought the shoe was very outside the box and somewhat a shoe that pretty much stands on its own, which means i kouldnt wear what i wanted to. But, through the years and me coming into my love for italian fashion, i have grown to love the style of shoe. It also has become the second group of shoes that i have more than two colors of. The tradition brogue only came in cordovan and black,but thanks to a kouple of well known shoe designers, the wingtip is presented in worlds of kolors,which gets the young gents into a past times favorite.I usually wear mines with shorts or jeans rolled up and no socks of course!
