JOHN LOBB “GarnierⅡ”
In 1866, the first bespoke store opened on London's Regent Street. The Paris branch, established in 1902, came under the Hermès umbrella in '76, and the ready-to-wear collection was launched in '82. Today, the brand offers a collection of ready-to-wear shoes with elegant forms, alongside made-to-order shoes crafted with artisanal skill through By Request and Bespoke services.
The "Garnier II," a staple for formal footwear, is characterized by its design specifically for formal attire, including six eyelets and an elegant silhouette. While the patent leather version is unfortunately no longer available, the same model is offered in Oxford calf leather.
