The "LOPEZ" in Suede, a Special Offer for Japan
When you think of John Lobb's classic loafers, the "LOPEZ" comes to mind. Since its debut in 1950, its simple design, adaptable to various scenes and styles, has made it a beloved choice worldwide.
This time, the luxurious Lopez, crafted from single pieces of leather for both the upper and lining, appears as a special offer item for the BY REQUEST fair. Available in five suede colors—Black, Dark Brown, Midnight, Pewter, and Aubergine—all feature natural stitching (normally, stitch color changes are not permitted with BY REQUEST). Sample items will also be on display at the stores during the fair period.
The "BY REQUEST" Fair is Finally Starting
John Lobb's "BY REQUEST" is a made-to-order system for ready-to-wear shoes available year-round. During the annual "BY REQUEST Fair," customers can customize current models to their preferred specifications, and also place orders to复刻 (recreate) certain discontinued past models.
Orders can be placed by coordinating styles, materials, colors, soles, sizes (from 5 to 12), and widths (from D to EE) from a pre-selected range.
