John Lobb Aston Martin "Winner" Shoe.



New from John Lobb comes a collaboration product, designed and made by John Lobb, with a nod from Aston Martin for Branding and inspiration.  Called the Winner, the shoes are designed to be a driving shoe which can be worn casually, rather than the classic driving shoes which have become so ubiquitous, that were originally designed only for driving, and have ended up being worn more out of the car than while driving.



The Shoes are made from full grain Calfskin, and are lined in sheepskin leather, and are available in a range of 8 colours, four of which have Racing Red bonded rubber soles and matching laces, and four of which come with White bonded soles with matching laces.  The shoes have been specifically made to give a comfortable driving experience, having been made on the sporty 8695 last, with perforation on the out and instep to give a smooth air flow while working the pedals of a vehicle.

The video below shows some behind the scenes information on the collaboration, no pricing has been released as yet, and they have been given a release date of around May 2012, but we would give a rough pricing estimate on these babies of around £550.
