Grey For All Seasons: Carmina for Epaulet Fitzgerald Shortwing Slate Tumbled Calfskin Wingtip

Carmina for Epaulet Fitzgerald Shortwing Slate Tumbled Calfskin Wingtip

Grey in the winter?  No problem.  Grey in the hands of a seasoned label like Carmina is most definitely not a problem.  Founded in 1866 on the Spanish island of Mallorca, Carmina knows a thing or two about Old European quality shoemaking and now they've collaborated with that venerable haberdasher in the LES of NY, Epaulet.  The buttery soft grey tumbled French calfskin has a dress-up dress-down appeal that works well with everything from the inkiest denims to the nubbiest tweeds.  The Goodyear welted sole, rounded tip and full purple leather liner all conspire to make sure that this shoe is as comfortable as it is attractive and be classic enough to go on season after season.  Available at Epaulet Manhattan at 144 Orchard Street 212.228.3626 and Epaulet Brooklyn at 231 Smith Street 718.522.3800 and at EpauletShop.com.
