JP/DAVID men's shoes: loafers, derbies and ankle boots
The JP/DAVID collection covers the full range of classic men's shoes. On one side the loafers in leather and suede, in tan, brown and blue, with perforated-leather versions for the warmer seasons and details such as the horsebit. On the other the lace-ups: derby, Norwegian derby, slip-on oxford. Completing the range are the ankle boots, from Beatle boots to brown leather styles, through to laced vintage leather models and the engineer.
What these styles have in common is the way they are built. JP/DAVID works with artisanal methods and chooses materials made to age well: leathers that gain depth of colour with wear instead of deteriorating, suedes that keep their hand over time. It is an idea of footwear meant to last, in which care in the construction counts for more than immediate effect.
In everyday terms this becomes a wardrobe of shoes that answers different occasions. The blue or tan loafer goes with a lightweight suit just as easily as with cotton trousers and an unstructured jacket; the derby remains the most solid choice for the office and for formal settings; Beatle boots and ankle boots take over from the low styles when the season turns colder, without breaking the coherence of the rest of the outfit. Anyone looking for men's shoes that stay relevant beyond a single season will find in JP/DAVID a consistent and recognisable proposition.
