beigefoldedshoe Zbrrl 54 Best Foot Forward

Critically acclaimed designer Marloes ten Bhömer is launching her first commercially available shoe this month in London.

The designer is best known for her couture shoe collections, which feature many imaginatively constructed pieces. Almost more a work of art than a fashion statement, her latest creation brings something different to the market.

This is the ‘Beigefoldedshoe’, a shoe made entirely from a single piece of folded leather, with a stainless steel heel. This new design stems from one of her visionary footwear concepts, transformed into a wearable shoe through two years of design and engineering development.

The shoes are handmade in the UK, and cost £2,250 (approximately $3,716).
