Jie Ming Street: System shoes Capital

Dandy is very popular in Jermyn Street, known as "men's street" in London. This is the shoe making capital of the famous British Playboy Beau Brummell. The Soir e e series, the high-end brand John Lobb of handmade shoes, is the first attempt of old shoemaker to make shoes with black color. The elegant Odessa series (555 pounds) has abandoned the design of shoelaces, decorated with silk, and has sapphire, emerald and Ruby colors.

Another "pure bred" Jie Ming Street Edward Green has produced the traditional style black lacquer Carnegie (Carnegie) tie boots (660 pounds), and a new generation of Edinburgh bow thin bottom dance shoes (390 pounds), with two kinds of black and deep purple red leather. The Edinburgh series also accepts customization of customers (475 pounds): for example, the color of lacquer skin: black, dark purple, navy blue and green four optional, and also can choose the color of the outside, ribbon and lining. The brand Ifford lace up shoes (495 pounds) are 20 suede tops.

The French shoemaker JM Weston, also from Jamin street, has launched a brand new "black tie" series based on this trend. The long Oxford shoes have chisel shaped toe, which makes the style more exquisite. The casual shoes with fringed shoes, loafer, are made of black leather, which can be regarded as the main hits.

　　 The revival of slippers

George Cleverley's advanced customized shoe brand GJ Cleverley also has orders. However, the difference is that the demand of customers is mostly concentrated on non evening dress occasions. Especially the ready-made thin bottom shoes and slippers (150 pounds) have doubled sales in the past year. A customer recently bought 40 pairs at a stretch, apparently a love of good material and mashup style. The bicycle frame, footprints, seahorses and skeletons are all on the shoes. "They like to wear these shoes during the day and at night instead of wearing them to some parties." Andy Murphy, who has had 13 years of sales experience, explains, "we provide 21 kinds of cashmere and 10 color velvet to customers." In the custom slippers series (2300 pounds), GJ Cleverley combines calf skin, crocodile skin, lizard skin, shark skin and stingray fish skin, forming a rather wonderful style.

Of course, the popularity of slippers is not due to the revival of opera, but the charm of slippers as a kind of shoes. Those who dare to dress up with such shoes convey a unique creativity, such as Alberto Moretti, Italy leather brand Tuscan "s". Designer Gentleman, professional polo player, and is a three year old tie tie dress connoisseur. It is because of the familiarity of this way of life that Moretti created a special category called "velvet slippers" (velvet slipper, 463 Europe). This is a soft, styled and slender Lok shoe with complex and gorgeous colors. Velvet slippers were once unable to get rid of their home attributes. But now it has become a fashionable symbol, "Moretti said. Velvet is a passport to fashion: you can use it with jeans or tuxedo, whether in daily life or at a banquet. I changed my traditional slippers into soft shoes that I could wear anywhere. " Easy to match lightweight canvas shoes (pumps, 508 Euro) show the design purpose of Moretti; other shoes are decorated with metal pieces (857 Euro). The fashionable goats leather black shoe (483 Europe) is also the best choice for mashup. {page_break}

Unbounded Mashup

For shoemaking, Dover Street in London's upper class became a strong competitor for Jamin street. In the past year, fashion life brand Jimmy Choo and high heeled shoes brand Christian Louboutin show a new series of men in the window. These two big cards invariably regard the dinner as the design theme. Jimmy Choo's Foxley dress shoes (450 pounds) are made of goatskin and herringbone and decorated with fringes. The design of Christian Louboutin combines many elements, such as Japanese comics, and also uses crash and differential materials. In this way, tassels, horse fur, plaid and pin are mixed together, only enough confident people have the courage to wear.

Talented new students Designer Louis Leeman has made a small success in shoemaking, attracting a number of high-end customers, and has some cooperation with the wild fashion Roberto Cavalli of the fashion industry. The slippers designed by him (Smoking Slippers, 420 pounds) are quite suitable for people like Louis Xiv. The material of the tussah has a curved line, and the tussah or brightly colored striped fabric is studded with pins. Velvet slippers (510 pounds) are dark purple, light brown, mossy green, sky blue, and the toe is a metallic bronze.

"We have been trying to promote innovation. In this field, there are few so-called stereotypes. The only rule is not to sacrifice quality. Technology is our belief. " Leeman from London said frankly. The result of this belief is that those exotic shoes are suitable for large and small occasions. "In our minds, there is a male image of individuality: publicity is revealed in tradition. We don't mind stealing the Tommy Nutter client of Saville Street's most avant-garde tailor. Imagine the Playboy Beau Brummell wearing Tommy Nutter suit with a pair of twill shoes on the feet. This feeling may be exaggerated for many men. Fortunately, the exaggeration of these shoes can actually be accepted by gentlemen of all walks of life.
