There’s perhaps no other shoe in the store that draws as much attention as this magnificent pair of Corthay, Cocteau in “Vert Bronze”. The color is amazing blending shades of green with what can only be described as flecks of bronze dust. I sell this shoe well to men that enjoy setting themselves apart from [...]

Fall is full of texture, wool, cashmere, flannel, and suede all rich and all beautiful. Suede is made from the under side of the skin as a result it has a nap either short or longer and is softer on the foot. Many people admire it and it reached its pinnacle of desire in the [...]
The October issue of GQ is on newsstands today. I’m particularly excited about the article; From “Cute” to Cool-the Rise of the West Village, because it includes Leffot on pages 134 & 136, calling us “A dangerous place” which I think they mean in a good way. It lists several other cool spots for shopping, [...]
What I find most appealing about a wholecut shoe is the simplicity and formality. Made from a single piece of leather there a no other lines to distract the eye. It is also a very comfortable fit because there are no other seams that might cause pressure on a particular spot of the foot. This [...]
The Monmouth by Edward Green is the perfect example of an English shoe that is not afraid to be just that. The extended storm welted double leather souls gives this shoe a strong masculine look, beautifully hand brogued and pinked. Crafted in rich Dark Oak it’s a combination that makes this a great all around [...]
This J.M. Weston 3 eyelet derby is making its debut on the blog. I’m not really sure why I haven’t posted it before now. It’s a very popular style at Leffot not just because of it’s sleek lines and plain almost boot looking toe, it’s also a very comfortable fitting shoe. A tapered toe but [...]
I’ve been holding off on wearing this pair of Gaziano & Girling Mitchell’s in Vintage Maple until today, I could hold off no longer. I’m wearing them with a pair of dark blue A.P.C. “New Standard” jeans and the color looks great, not to mention how comfortable they feel. I know I’ve said this before [...]
It pleases me very much that Leffot is receiving attention not only in the U.S. but also around the world. Spice Magazine India’s #1 luxury & lifestyle publication has included us in its September issue. Thank you Spice for this very prominent article, we are very happy to be included in your fine publication.
It’s perhaps the plainest most nondescript shoe in the store but I like it. It’s industrial, workman like and no nonsense, an “Ugly Betty” if you will. A shoe to wear with a uniform perhaps but slip in a pair of dress laces and shine these babies up and the goose becomes a swan, well [...]
I am pleased to announce that Dean Girling will be visiting Leffot on September 24 with the Gaziano & Girling Made-to-Order and Bespoke exhibition. Dean will also be displaying the new range of ready to wear styles which includes boots, dress shoes, and sport shoes, all featuring their continued upgraded quality and specifications.
