Handmade in Germany in a classic wingtip Derby design, it combines smooth nappa leather with soft nubuck and is built specifically in an \u003cstrong\u003eextra-wide K fitting\u003c\/strong\u003e for dancers who need more room through the foot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnderneath the beautifully traditional exterior is a very practical dance shoe: a professional chrome-leather sole, shock-absorbing 2cm heel, removable insole and breathable microfibre lining make 089 equally at home in Ballroom lessons, social dancing and longer practice sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePersonality\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClassic • Tailored • Refined • Understated\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is probably the closest we've come in the men's collection to a beautifully made traditional dress shoe. The combination of \u003cstrong\u003esmooth black nappa leather and contrasting black nubuck\u003c\/strong\u003e, finished with subtle wingtip brogue detailing, gives 089 considerably more character than a plain black Ballroom shoe without becoming flashy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiamant 089 Men's Ballroom Shoes – Design \u0026amp; Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe biggest reason to choose 089 is fit. This particular version is built on Diamant's \u003cstrong\u003eK last – its extra-wide fitting\u003c\/strong\u003e – giving broader feet considerably more room than a standard men's Ballroom shoe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eopen Derby lacing\u003c\/strong\u003e is especially useful here. Because the quarters open more freely than on a closed-lacing Oxford-style shoe, the upper can be adjusted across a fuller foot or higher instep while still creating a secure hold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDiamant combines \u003cstrong\u003eblack nappa leather with black nubuck\u003c\/strong\u003e, allowing the shoe to retain its formal Ballroom appearance while introducing a softer textural contrast through the centre panels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside, a premium Italian microfibre lining is designed to be \u003cstrong\u003ebreathable, antibacterial and moisture absorbing\u003c\/strong\u003e. The insole is also removable – a particularly useful feature for dancers who prefer to replace the standard footbed or use their own suitable insole.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnderfoot, the professional \u003cstrong\u003echrome-leather dance sole\u003c\/strong\u003e provides the controlled glide expected from a traditional Ballroom shoe, while the low \u003cstrong\u003e2cm shock-absorbing heel\u003c\/strong\u003e keeps the profile stable and grounded.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiamant 089 Technical Profile\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"background: #FBFBFB;
