PADRINI Derby by KLEMAN: A Textured Take on Workwear

The PADRINI by KLEMAN is deeply rooted in the brand’s workwear heritage while standing out through a distinctive material choice. Defined by its pony hair apron, it brings texture and depth to a clean, structured silhouette. Designed as a unisex derby, the PADRINI combines essential lines, solid construction, and strong character, staying true to KLEMAN’s functional and durable approach to footwear.

A Characterful Apron-Toe Derby

With its balanced proportions and robust build, the PADRINI revisits the apron-toe derby through a utilitarian yet contemporary lens. The contrast between smooth leather and pony hair leather gives each pair a unique identity without excess. Naturally expressive, this textured material makes every model slightly different, while preserving the raw aesthetic that defines KLEMAN.

Made in France with Selected European Leathers

Made in France in KLEMAN’s workshops, the PADRINI is crafted from carefully selected European leathers, chosen for their durability and long-lasting quality. The pony hair leather used on the apron is selected for both its resistance and distinctive appearance, while smooth leather panels ensure structure and reliability over time. A commitment to materials that reflects KLEMAN’s manufacturing standards.

Lug Sole Inspired by Professional Heritage

Fitted with a lug sole in rubber, the PADRINI benefits directly from KLEMAN’s professional footwear heritage. Designed to provide stability, grip, and everyday comfort, this sole reinforces the shoe’s grounded stance and workwear identity, without compromising usability.

PADRINI, a Singular Workwear Derby

Sitting between tradition and material expression, the PADRINI stands apart within the KLEMAN derby collection. Its pony hair apron gives it an instantly recognisable look, while remaining faithful to a functional, understated, and timeless workwear wardrobe. A Made in France derby designed for those seeking character, durability, and authenticity.
