My Pinterest

In case you were wondering what happened to The Shoe Edit - it died and went to Pinterest. I started a Pinterest account and have found it very easy to pin my shoe research rather than blog it. I am thinking of transferring the posts from there to here and using both, as each program has its benefits. For now you can check out pinterest.com/spiro/footwear

If I finally decided to do some exercise and take up running, I would want to run in these.

Footwear needs more things like Marloes ten Bhömer. The Pressedleathershoe is made up of just three pieces of pressed leather.

More chunky soled boots. This time from Dior Homme featuring brogueing and some nice trim.

Damir Doma Crepe Soled Boots

Such simple boots with a super chunky crepe sole that I imagine would feel great to walk around in.

Mark McNairy Contrast Sole Chukka

I don't wear much colour but there is something about yellow...

A good mix of colours and materials make these a very smart casual shoe.

Jil Sander f/w 11 Footwear

Beautiful boots with some nice gold detailing including a hole in the wedge that accommodates the stirrup pants featured in the collection.

Customised Prada s/s 11 Shoes

I dont think you're ready for this jelly - but when you are (and when they are) you will be able to see more crazy Victoria Spruce creations on their website which is launching soon.

Givenchy Couture f/w 11

via mademoiselledujour & thebestfashionblog

Givenchy couture is always gobsmackingly good. The shoes aren't anything to write home about but it is interesting to see what they pair with such spectacular clothing. See a video of Tisci talking about the collection with some detailed views HERE.

Nike Air Royal Mid Lite VT

via fcstyle

Saw these in a store the other day and was rather impressed. Simple retro design incorporating some crazy modern elements. They almost border on being sandals.

Miharayasuhiro Desert boot/Brogue

via theshoebuff

Mutant!

Miu Miu Suede Peep-Toe Pumps

via net-a-porter

That is one killer silhouette. Chunky and sleek at the same time.

Maison Martin Margiela Sock Boot

via theshoebuff

I've really got a thing for knitted elements on footwear. No idea why. Exhibit A.
