Oetzi “Otz” which ever you prefer is pronounced the same,  because either means  – great shoes, great comfort and  great innovative comfort footwear design. I gush about this brand to the point you would think I am on the payroll (hey can I get on the payroll?) but you know what, they keep the fabulousness coming – ie the new for SP/SU 12 Tara Sandal. This sandal begs you to put your birkenstocks away and step into the season with a new modern look that is as classic as it is contemporary. Amazing design, supple leather, cork soles and an oragami slip knot lacing system that is much easier than it looks in the pics. This shoe just puts a smile on our face because the brand is from Malibu and they never fail to amaze us – what’s next Otz or Oetzi???. Click through . Give a Call . Canvas 310.317.9895

Spring is truly in the air when the Otz 300gms is in the building. This Malibu based and designed brand single handledly turned our attention to an area of footwear that we were tinkering with, but had not committed to – barefoot comfort. We always bought fashionable shoes that were comfortable, but then Otz3300 came along and showed us a shoe that placed a premium on comfortable without excluding fashion and we have been happily married ever since. The 300gms is made from Italian linen and for sp12 comes in some very groovy pop colors, mimosa (yellow), maui blue, military and natural. The cork lite insole is still lite, comfy and will mould to your feet. To go on about how great this shoe is is pointless – come in and try them on and let your feet do the talking. Click through .

Pointer UK has stepped up their womens footwear offerings for sp12 in a big way. All shoes are handmade in portugal , the fabrics are amazing and everything is just a little ahead of the curve. The (Darcy)ballet the flat is soft and super comfortable, with a durable sole and construction in a nude color that will only get better over time. The mens lace-up done for women (Elise) is spring summer cool with the mesh sides and a great deep navy colored suede. Lastly the wedge (Eliza) is taking things to the next level with a very contemporary design that is unique. Burgundy is a color that is coming on strong for sring/summer right into fall12 and the wedge heel screams summer every year, but as a lace-up is fresh. Store favorites – All three.  Click through .

The Passamaquoddy tribe of eastern Maine have an age old heritage of craftsmanship, from their moccasins to their birch bark canoes, all done without man-made materials or adhesives.  Craftsmanship combined with a high level of artistry is what made their products special and allowed them to perform so well in the sometimes harsh conditions in the ever changing ocean of Maine. Quoddy adapted those techniques in the performance and quality of their handsewn moccasins that are legendary for comfort, durability, and ability to conform to one’s foot over time for a true custom fit.  This amazing family owned company delivers a handmade, american made product that is truly unbelieveable. Getting to work with Quoddy  and to have them make shoes specifically  for our shop is an honor. Ladies and Gents take a walk in these well constructed  moccasins,  it feels like walking on pillows. Style: Ring boot, Chromepak natural brown wrap, Calico dark bone suede, Glove lining, Antique brass hardware, Natural handsewing. Click through . Give a call . Canvas 310.317.9895 .

Comme des Garcons teamed up with converse to have a go at the Jack Purcell silhouette this time around and what you see above is the outcome. CDG play collection is hot and has been for a few years now, we sort of backed off the brand for a while but the collab sneakers are the cats meow and we try to get our little grubbies on them whenever they are released. For women we brought in the low tops in the white with the red heart and the black with black heart and for men the lo’s in white with the black heart and the lo’s in black with the black heart.
