The Downtown Dappers are a pair of shoes that are exactly what they say they are. Feel good and walk with a smug little spring in your step with a set of derby oxfords that look classy and don't break the bank. Made with vegan leather and smooth rubber roles, the Dappers are sleek with a slightly more pointed toe and speak of a subtle charm. Derby-style lacing is less formal than the classic oxford style, so you won't feel too strange if you wear these shoes every day. As a lower-cost option, they still look nice enough to wear to a special occasion like a wedding or a big job interview.

Our best-selling Downtown Dappers are the perfect introductory shoe for a handsomely stylish person who wants to start dipping their toes into the more masculine end of footwear but isn't ready to spend hundreds of dollars on shoes. They come in a striking steely blue, a handsome sandy brown, a classic jet black, an eye-catching sharkfin grey, and a warm, confident dark brown. With smooth rubber soles that will last longer than the high-formality leather soles of other oxfords, the Downtown Dapper line of formal shoes are a great first pair that will make you proud to step out into public.

Each pair of Downtown Dappers comes with a complementary tin of neutral shoe polish.

Fabulously Timed, Incredibly comfortable, Gorgeously Joyous

Not only are these incredibly gender-affirming, both from the details of using European sizes [the equivalents really, really work] and the styles, butttt I was told my shoes probably wouldn’t be able to arrive in time for a week after I ordered them (4-5 businesses days after). I even got an email saying they wouldn’t be able to ship out until 3-4 business days. So I’m low-key high-key planning to wear my siblings’ very femme shoes, since at least they’ll be black, to my event.

3 business days after I order them, I see the glorious package. Perfectly sized [way to save the environment], with the prettiest black tissue paper. They fit like a gem, are surprisingly comfortable, and while strong, the scent is actually kind of pleasant? Jerky-adjacent, though I’ll be sure to follow the delightfully helpful and gorgeous card it comes with to deal with it.

My shoes came 2 days early!! Thank you so, so much!! My event will be amazing, with gender euphoric shoes to support me all along the way.

I can’t wait to get the funds to order the Peacock boots next, should they ever make a wide version.

Tl;Dr these came fabulously early, fabulously comfortably, and have given me great joy within the first 5 minutes of being with them. Thank you, Tomboy Toes!!!!!

Very affirming choice

I bought these shoes for a wedding I have coming up and I wanted a small masculine dress shoe, which are difficult to find unless you want to spend 200+ (which I don't). A fellow queer recommended Tomboy Toes and when they arrived I was pretty pleased. I was a little unsure how I felt about the toe, it's a little more pointed than I am used to and there is a ridge at the top that is just part of the shaping, but honestly, I love them. They are sharp, and make me feel very fancy. I really like them and they are well made. I've only had them a month so I can't speak to longevity, but so far so good.

Okay

I normally wear 7-7.5 I got the 37, should’ve gotten the 36 because 37 fits big. Pointier toe than expected. But pretty nice shoes overall.

I am a future Mortician, and so I can not wait to wear this for work.

Comfy and fancy!

I feel super confident and masculine, and snazzy, helps gender presentation and weirdly smell good
