With all those wedges and white soles out there, Ecco was bound to respond. With a touch of euro-sport appeal, they’ve outdone themselves with the summer 2012 sculptured collection. Elegant/casual uppers paired with luminous and shapely bases will complement any wardworbe (without sacrificing mileage- these shoes are built for comfort!).

The Sculptured flats. Trim and sporty finishing with full grain leather uppers. Pay attention to the wingtip detail here.

The Sculptured pump. Or skimmer, depending on where your from. works best with khaki’s and tortoise shell shades. Finish the whole thing with a top-down convertable mustang and scarf trailing in the wind.

The Sculptured wedge sandal. Zip up high-backs and die cut banding up across the instep. The bold white sole keeps things current, along with the colour (actually called Lion).

The Sculptured low sandals. Tried and true uppers that will keep you on your feet.

Shoes to go with the song:

Seriously, Merrell finally came up with what we’ve been needing: cyclo-pumps. These beauties were designed with bikes in mind; a light shanking and flat forefoot platform combined with toe bumpers make these serious pedal pushers. And cute to boot!

And now the shoes!

Great retro toe shapes with lots of instep details (function…) highlight Clarks women’s dress shoes. Look for subtle blush colours or stick with basic blacks. Either way, you might be surprised at the comfort in this category!

Flats are back, and more comfortable than ever. We really like the perforated detail on the Indigo Plush Bea- that’s why we are showing it in every colour.

Sandals abound, either casual or dress. These three belong to the Latin group- super plush footbeds combined with a low wedge latex base means serious comfort. Lot of fresh new styles and colour in this group to choose from

I thought we already went through the ‘70’s flashback stuff, but here is another dose. Cork and Jute wrapped wedges belong on everybody’s feet; especially when they are paired with fantastic uppers like these two specimens.

Men get Clarks too, and they even get some colour this season. East coast influence is big again, and these Boston-designed city dwelling “boat shoes” will keep comfy while gallivanting around the lakefront  or sipping margaritas on Whyte.

Clarks Originals. Haven’t gone out of style since 1950. Men’s and Women’s styles. ‘nuff said.
