J.M. Weston, a long-established French shoe brand characterized by timeless and graceful designs, and sacai, a brand focusing on creating structured silhouettes that blend in with everyday life, have collaborated to design two new elegant and hybrid unisex model shoes.
This partnership utilizes J.M. Weston's unrivalled expertise to create two versions of the “Derby Golf” (cowhide with leopard-print hair and black box) and two versions of the “Worker” boots (camel nubuck and black calfskin). Manufactured at the Limoges factory and mounted on a leather sole with a rubber midsole (specially developed for this collaboration by the Manufacture's design department), the two models have been subtly revisited by sacai's signature, now praised by not only the fashion lovers, but from around the world. The derbies and ankle boots feature this highly dramatic, oversized sole that explores never-before-seen lines and volumes. Details are designed to tease the boundaries of styles through an unexpected combination of sacai's modernity and J.M. Weston's heritage. J.M. Weston and sacai will launch collaborative items on September 11th at select J.M. Weston and sacai retailers.
