How my love for Colette continues.  They are exclusively selling a new peice of footwear that, if I were a certain type of man with a very large bank account, I would immediately want.

They are La Rafale; a city version of supersonic jet pilot boots.  Yep, the suppliers to the French Army, Airforce and Marines – Hardridge- have teamed up with L’Ecurie to recreate a coutre, city version of the original boot. And what’s more they have designed a shoe box that appears to be a customised, full size, porshe…

From Mail Movement :transforming a 60s’prestigious sports coupé into a shoe trunk: A Karman Porsche from 1968 without handles, topshopped, equipped with wheels, without chromium and painted matte gray nimbus, was specially developed for this project. Its front trunk is transformed into a trunk and supplied with a P.A. system and a video equipment for the projection of special making-of films from the project.

This is how to make men want shoes.
