And we’re back to trainers with a brand that’s not too well known in France: PF-Flyers (an American brand that’s been around for over 70 years). They’ve just launched a collection of stylish trainers with the code name “The number 5“. A rather nice design, fabric, leather, nubuck, brown, black, and unusual patterns such as a “seventies” (see above) or even “paisley”! An interesting alternative to Vejas, Fred Perrys, Premiatas, ou autres Paul Smiths.

RRP: €110. On sale in Paris at Galeries Lafayette, Atelier Chaussure, Guardia Jeans, Le Refuge, the Tube

Another key item at the moment: boots ! If you’re still not really a fan, you’ll see that you will be in a few days time! (well, I’m gonna try my hardest). Let’s start with one of my latest favourites: These boots from Blackstone. The specialists among you may already know this Dutch brand (see their site). I love their style: python scales layered on top of embroidery, it’s stylish, it’s wild, they’re real rock star shoes! -Hey baby, give me a beer!
