Fall 2016: Men’s Luxury Footwear

The Chicago Defender brings you the latest in men’s luxury footwear for F/W 2016. The silhouettes are still classic but some of the materials are very exotic like elephant and kangaroo skins. Two species that would certainly draw the ire of PETA but will definitely separate you from the crowd as well as your money.

Oh, and by the way, they’re not from Italy. Instead, they’re all handmade by the legendary Kielman family of Poland since 1883 – surprise.

Vented Derbies for those who can’t let go of summer.

Asymmetrical wholecuts in kangaroo.

Skotan calfskin wholecuts with red trim

Wholecut in African elephant nubuck with sand-colored trimming

Hidden stitch Italian colt derbies

Africa inspired shark skin and mountain sheep ankle boot

Derby style ankle boot in blue calfskin – stunning!
