It was time to polish my EG Perth’s in Burnt Pine so I thought I would share the stages with you. As I begin the first photo is the Perth as they are and you can see the need for polishing. Next step is removing the laces; I like to polish my shoes on the [...]
Whenever I wear the Aubercy Malaury it’s always commented on. Today we set it against this classic plaid English cashmere scarf by Psycho Bunny to bring a bit of holiday color to the store. When we detailed the Aubercy styles we had the option of choosing the lining colors, and as you can see here [...]
We wish you and your families a happy, healthy, and peaceful Thanksgiving.
Call it coincidence, call it timing or kismet but New York Magazine has published an article this week about the state of the Paul Rudolph Foundation. I think this is a perfect tie in to our installation by Chris Mottalini “After You Left They Took You Apart” a photo collection of homes designed by Paul [...]
It’s a rainy day in the New York area and my client Joe S. sent me an email this morning asking what shoes I wear in the rain. In my opinion the Alden All Weather Walker is perfect for a light rain. The grained leather upper will withstand some moisture and the natural plantation crepe [...]
Our latest MTO arrival is from Pierre Corthay. This is the Wilfrid in black calf and black suede, a very elegant combination. The suede reminds me somewhat of a pair of spats.
We had our first art installation opening reception last night and by the look of it everyone really enjoyed themselves. The photography of Chris Mottalini will be here in our gallery space until December 20, please feel free to come in and check it out.
This week we feature our new Alden’s Chukka boots in unlined Snuff Suede. These are on the leather flex soles. I really love the color play with the purple Psycho Bunny scarf and tie.
We received some beautiful MTO’s from Edward Green yesterday. I am posting them today because I think it’s only fair the client has the first look (actually I have the first look but as your trusted adviser it’s a professional privilege). I’ve posted a few Corthay MTO’s but I believe these are the first Edward [...]
We are very excited to host photographer Chris Mottalini at Leffot as he presents two collections; “After you left, they took it apart”, and “The mistake by the lake.” We invite you to join us for the opening reception on Thursday November 20th from 6:00 – 8:00 PM.
The few Shell Cordovan styles I could lay my hands on from Alden are now here in stock. We currently have the 563 tassel loafer and the 974 balmoral wingtip on double leather soles, both in color 8 (burgundy). In the coming days I’ll post the other Alden styles we’ve received, i.e. suede Chukka, and [...]
Bob is the Pierre Corthay Chukka Boot. We chose it in dark brown suede with a thin crepe rubber sole. This three-eyelet boot has a very refined and sophisticated look. Our client, Abel came by wearing them last night with a pair of gray flannel pants with cuffs. He looked very chic. The Pierre Corthay [...]
