What is a wingtip?
Wingtip is a phase of leather shoes with a wing-like transition at the toe. Generally, the entire shoe is decorated with holes such as medallions or perforations, and depending on the type, it can be used widely from business scenes to town use on holidays. Incidentally, “wingtip” is the name used in the U.S. In the U.K., the term “full brogue” is often used to refer to similar leather shoes, although the meaning of the term is slightly different. In Japan, which has a history of being strongly influenced by American fashion culture, the term “wingtip” is often used.
