The Wilms runs true to size for most fittings. If you have a wider foot, choose the full size above your usual measurement for a more comfortable fit, for example, if you normally wear a UK 9.5 in other brands, choose UK 10. The full leather lining will soften and bed in over the first several wears. JWS stocks full UK sizes only (UK 6–13); we do not stock half sizes. What occasions are the Wilms Derby shoes suitable for? The plain 4-eyelet Derby is one of the most versatile styles in formal footwear, appropriate for business meetings, weddings, and smart-casual occasions alike. The rubber sole with tread makes them practical enough for daily commuting without sacrificing a clean, dressed appearance. What leather is used and how is the Wilms constructed? The upper is premium polished calf leather with a smooth finish, fully leather-lined with a suede heel counter for comfort and structure. The ribbon-edged leather insole sits underfoot, and the rubber outsole with tread provides everyday grip, making the Wilms a well-specified shoe for regular wear. How should I care for the Wilms to keep them looking their best? Regular brushing after each wear removes surface dirt and prevents grime building up in the leather grain. Every 3–4 wears, wipe down with a slightly damp cloth, allow to dry naturally, then apply a colour-matched wax polish using small circular motions and buff to a shine. Polished calf leather responds well to consistent care and will develop a deeper lustre over time.
