Order Your Trendy Sneakers with the By Request Service
In today's wardrobe, few shoes are as versatile as sneakers. Consequently, a vast array of designs exists. However, the JOHN LOBB "LEVAH" stands apart due to its blend of sporty aesthetics and inherent dignity.
Originally, the "Levah" was a modern refinement of a tennis shoe discovered by Artistic Director Paula Gerbase in the archives, dating back to around 1923. However, its design approach goes beyond mere aesthetic enhancement; it begins with understanding the customer's persona.
This design was created to meet the request for shoes that could be worn with JOHN LOBB dress shoes on weekdays, and offer a more relaxed comfort for weekends and vacations. Thus, while casual, they possess the classiness that discerning individuals require.
Available from Size 3 (approx. 22.5cm), Women Can Also Order By Request
The "Levah" By Request Fair, featuring these appealing sneakers, will be held sequentially across the country from the end of September 2016. The available leather types for custom orders are flat calf, grain calf, and suede. Each material comes in 21 color variations. You can then combine these with soles featuring white x yellow stitching or natural x brown stitching to create your original pair.
Additionally, the tongue binding and eyelets can be customized with your preferred colors, adding a unique accent.
The eyelets are available in white, black, and gunmetal, offering a wide range of choices suitable even for men who appreciate meticulous detail.
Furthermore, this By Request service starts from size 3, making it an excellent option for women seeking basic yet high-quality sneakers. Don't miss this opportunity to acquire your own masterpiece sneaker.
