Pierre is arguably one of France’s most dynamic shoemakers; he was awarded the honor of “Master of Art” by the government of France and creates shoes that are simply genius. The Master of Art designation of France, while not widely known in the States, is not bestowed lightly. In short, it means that the individual or firm is a cultural icon.

Pierre will be here one day only to accept Made to Order, Bespoke, and Ready to Wear orders.

 When a master shoemaker visits it’s a rare opportunity you won’t want to miss.

If you’re looking for something special, something unique than look no further your search is over. If you haven’t owned an Arca you don’t know what you’re missing.

And if style alone weren’t enough he is a master of color, developing patinas to create truly unique and very special (read) “limited” masterpieces.

The color of our latest Vendome is Graphite, a cool dark slightly metallic grey that is subtly enhanced by the lighter inside edge of the punching.

Style note: These shoes look particularly fine with a charcoal/white pinstripe suit. Trust us we’ve seen it.

All Corthay shoes are made in Paris and should be considered works of art. Pierre himself was awarded the lifetime title of maître d’art, or master of art by the government of France. Each year, the award is given to honor native artisans for their expertise and talent in their fields.

While not widely recognized in the United States the award is highly prestigious in France.

To behold a pair of Corthay shoes is one thing but to own them is completely another. If you are fortunate enough to be among the latter you should consider yourself in rare company indeed.
