Today's Favorites - Red Suede Edward Greens


It's not very often that you see red suede shoes, particularly coming from a company rooted in England. It's even far less common that you would see someone wearing these down the street. Yet that would be very cool. Apparently these were an MTO order, for a customer at Leffot (of which the pictures are courtesy of). When you think about it this way, there existence under the name Edward Green makes more sense, as I don't believe that they would ever produce something for their ready-to-wear lines. But then this brings up the age old question: with all of the beautiful shoes being sold each day in the world, why is it that I never see anyone wearing them? Do people only keep their cool shoes for special events? For parties? What? I just don't get it. It's not like I wear my red shoes with white piping everyday, but they definitely get a some wears throughout the year. But rarely do I see something exciting, such as these, gracing the feet of some well-dressed gentleman. It's never too late.....wear your exciting shoes proudly!

Shoes Of The Week




Shoes don't get much more interesting than this. And who do we have to thank for that? The Japanese and a bespoke shoe firm called Sinner (while I found what I thought to be their website, it did not work?) As I have stated in the past, the French are the masters of color and the Japanese are the masters of being bold and I love them for that. Those red suede, cap-toe, side lace brogues are simply amazing to say the least, let alone extremely unique and creative. Even with all of the crazy ideas I have floating around in my head, those may have never come to mind, but seeing them opens up a whole new path of ideas for me. I am particularly partial to all of these shoes due to my love of the combination between black and red (hence my saddle shoes, which are my favorite) as well as the fact that they are all incredibly beautiful. I think that if I went to Japan and visited all of the bespoke shoe shops, I just might never want to leave. But it gives me great pleasure to always see the creations that they have produced, knowing that when I do start my line and make the crazy designs that I have in my head, I know that at least the people of Japan will appreciate my shoes!!
