Rachel Comey: shoes for the gentle man
by Floor Serbrock posted on April 28, 2010Rachel Comey’s been around since 1973, but Rachel Comey THE BRAND kickstarted in 2001, launching as a menswear-only label. Shortly after, due to high demand, the womenswear line was created, now it’s centre focus. Rock ‘n roll with a soft edge and with a strong vintage undercurrent, her designs are heaven for the easy-breezy California beauty with trust-fund. Did I just identify a new category? We’ll work on shortening that.
Her Spring 2010 collection sees copper tones, emphasized waists, and most notably: boxy, baggy cuts, the kind characteristic of Marni.
But really why I am writing this entry is in dedication to her men’s shoewear line which just recently got its very own website. Durable, well-crafted shoes, carved out of the best leather, stitched into classic yet playful designs. These are the ingredients that make her designs timeless.
The webstore is suitably simple, playful and unique. For some premium fancy-foot action: click away.
