Something more uncommon.

I promise you. A foot fetish I have not (despite the innumerable footwear-related posts recently…), but with the recent influx of manners of adorning them it won’t be too much longer before I succumb. The culprits in question are these beautifully understated laceless Oxfords by Common Projects for Patrik Ervell, shown yesterday in NY. Surprising how the emission of one simple element (laces) can transform something from the banal to the most uncommon.

    Pretty sure Common Projects did the exact same in white for ss08.Missed out on that though(there was better ones).They go perfect with Ervells style.
