OLIBERTÉ-Made in Africa Footwear/Accessories-M/W 2015




SLC


It is interesting/curious the hundreds of how to engage/entice millennial pitches---when imo- anyone with a heartbeat would support a well made product made by a company with a good world citizen mission statement...and in the case of the growing Oliberté...products of top notch distinctive footwear and haulers...crafted in Ethiopia- non-toxic methods- using mostly African sourced materials.

Point being-no need for hard sale here...and Fall/Winter 2015 selections we previewed continue the small label tradition of super-ness. The workmanship/materials REALLY stand out.

Highlights:

Vegetable dyed leathers have unique qualities---lovely almost faded in the sun tone----NICE!

women's light brushed wax-Takami

Rhada slight wedge-cute walkable feminine height---dark grey brush wax...and black nubuck
