John Lobb (Instagram), in a symphony of rock ‘n’ roll inspiration, unveils its Autumn/Winter 2024 collection, rewriting the codes and proportions of classic shoes to the beat of music. Designed for a dynamic world, the collection showcases a palette of deep blacks, greens, and icy blues.
The FREDDI ankle boot, paying homage to 70s English styles, dances into the spotlight with velvet calfskin suede, offering flexibility and lightness. The EDDI Chelsea boot, with its minimal identity, epitomizes the house’s expertise and complements classic pieces from the Prestige line, including the Victor double buckle shoe.
In the urban line, the rock ‘n’ roll spirit thrives with SMITH, a derby inspired by ska and punk movements from the 1980s. John Lobb seamlessly integrates this energy into the AW24 collection, marrying a true sense of freedom and irreverence with world class shoemaking. One variant features a white upper and blue piping that further makes the shoe pop.
The collection’s modern and urban footwear shines with rediscovered gems like WILLIAM and LAWRY, boasting new soles with rounder, graphic silhouettes. The LOPEZ loafer, a signature piece, undergoes a tailored transformation with the same contemporary approach.
For the weekend, the collection offers a rugged look with reinforced volumes that can be adapted for elegant or casual looks, whether in town or in the countryside. The shearling-lined PEAK ankle boot unveils a cross-country silhouette with smooth leather galosh details and supple suede. The RIDGE, featuring a discreet elastic band, comes in various monochrome versions.
The presentation during Men’s Paris Fashion Week, just steps from the John Lobb store on Boulevard Saint Germain, perfectly blended tradition with contemporary styles. This was men’s shoe design of the very highest quality.
