These work equally well with a tailored suit for business occasions or with dress trousers for smart evening wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cp class=\"faq-question\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow should I care for the calf leather to maintain the finish?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp class=\"faq-answer\"\u003eWipe away dust after each wear with a soft dry cloth, then apply a quality calf leather conditioner every few weeks. A leather outsole benefits from periodic resoling by a cobbler, which can extend the life of the shoe by several years and is far more cost-effective than replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Dolce \u0026 Gabbana","offers":[{"title":"EU41 | US8","offer_id":57948993192310,"sku":"MV7905-41","price":727.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"EU42 | US9","offer_id":57948993225078,"sku":"MV7905-42","price":727.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"EU46 | US13","offer_id":57948993257846,"sku":"MV7905-46","price":727.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0976\/1361\/1382\/files\/9169122.jpg?v=1779717440","url":"https:\/\/mensedit.gr\/en\/products\/brown-leather-monk-strap-formal-derby-shoes","provider":"Mens Edit","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
