The Art of the Last
Every Deluci shoe begins with the last the sculpted form that shapes its fit, feel, and silhouette. More than a technical tool, the last is where craftsmanship meets vision. It defines the toe shape, guides the curve of the arch, and determines how the shoe hugs the foot.
At Deluci London, our signature lasts are the result of years of careful development and refinement. Each one is designed to balance elegance, comfort, and timeless form offering a fit that not only looks sharp but feels natural with every step.
Because great shoes don’t just start with great leather they start with a last built to last.

Y07
Last Y07 is the real deal. With a sharp, exaggerated chisel that swoops dramatically down toward its crisply defined square toe, this last pushes the boundaries of what “traditional” English dress shoes can be. Precisely for this reason, it has become a favorite of fashion forward trend-setters and independent artisans alike. When rendered in black calfskin or fitted into our Monkstrap, the Y07 is a distinctly masculine shoe perfect for double breasted suits or those wishing to leave an impression. However, with a dark oak or brown suede Lazyman, the Y07 leaves just enough room for a sophisticated aesthetic in both denim jeans or a navy-blue suit. The fit of the Y07 is similar to the standard Y02, but with a slightly wider joint and lower instep. It not necessary to adjust your size.
Y02
Last Y02 is our most standard and versatile design. Modelled after the classic trimmings of traditional English dress shoes, it features an elegant almond shaped toe that we shave down ever so slightly to give it a more slim, contemporary charm. Moreover, its snug width and long silhouette make it an excellent choice for Oxfords to match a formal suit, but can also lend a dash of refinement to even the most casual of settings and styles, including Chelsea or Derby boots. Last Y02 is our modern twist on a timeless classic, and as the first last we developed, we always recommend it to anyone looking for their first pair of Yearn shoes.
