Men’s shoe of the day

image

The truth is that men do not have the opportunity to buy a lot of pairs of shoes to match an outfit. For women it’s easier to make a statement, or to dazzle someone, either by wearing fringe knee boots or heels and so on. For men although it’s more difficult to capture the interest of women, with their shoes, but if they make the right choice, they wouldn’t believe how many women they will attract. No, we are not so superficial, we just admire taste and when we find it, we reward it! You can find the shoe in Korinthos, in Studio 5. Vasilis will upgrade your wardrobe, with an elagant and stylish way.

Find it in: 5 Eth. Antistasis Street, Korinthos, Greece
