Shoes of the day - Marc Guyot

For the day, I have chosen some shoes from Marc Guyot (Paris, France). Mr. Marc Guyot offers very unique pieces of clothing, be it as ready to wear, made to measure or bespoke. His inspiration is from the American dress code of the thirties and forties.
As seen below he offers very unique and special shoes for the demanding gent.


With the shoes from Mr. Marc Guyot, I will wish you a pleasant weekend.

For today Spigola Japanese Bespoke Shoemaker (Koji Suzuki)

For this morning I want to display works from Japanese Bespoke boot and shoemaker Spigola (Koji Suzuki), who makes stunning beautiful shoes for his clients. As I earlier mentioned, it is very seldom we see Japanese bespoke creations in Europe. Japanese creations are non existent in the Nordic, not sure if any of the gents from the Nordic can name a single Japanese bespoke shoemaker. A pity.

 This design and combination I have never seen before, oxford side gusset, whole cut leather with laces. Very unique.

Ramalhoni Shoes from Portugal

It is not much one hears news from Portugal, once a great seafarer nation. It is almost as the country is non existent, hardly any news about Portugal in the Nordic. But I stumbled over a "Bespoke Shoemaker" from Portugal, Miguel Ramalhao the owner and creator of the Ramalhoni a shoe creator and style blogger. I know nothing about this brand, however Miguel offers Goodyear welted shoes too + MTO. Production time is about 15 days from order and the pricing is very reasonable and they ship world wide. I thought, why not bring Portugal back into the spotlight as they deserve that.

Saint Crispins-shoes of the week

Saint Crispins based in Vienna (Austria) is the new kid on the block of "Bespoke" shoemaking in Austria.  Note that Vienna has several well respected shoemakers, for example the venerable Scheer, Materna, Maftei (also a new comer), Petkov, just to name a few.
The company was first registered in 1992. Saint Crispins do produce some very elegant, classic styled shoes for their clients. Since 1992 SC has provided shoes to an international clientele of gents. 


Below you will see some very interesting colours and well made shoes. I want to own all.
