Spring is here, and it is time to pull out your springtime wardrobe. Men, if you are looking to add a new pair of shoes to your spring collection, check out what Louis Vuitton is offering for Spring/Summer 2010. The luxury fashion house is showcasing a pair of luxurious alligator lace-ups for men. The Manhattan Richelieu wingtip shoe is finished in waxed alligator leather. If you are worried about comfort, don’t be because these shoes have a padded insock.
These showstoppers are constructed using Blake construction, a shoe-constructing method designed to provide immediate suppleness and comfort. Blake stitching embeds the thread in the outsole, which results in less wear and tear. How will people know that you are wearing a $10,000 pair of Louis Vuitton shoes? They won’t, unless they can see the Ruthenium-finish LV cube embedded in the leather heel. However, the point is for them not to know since savionaires are not into conspicuously displaying their wealth.
