Renowned in the late 80s and early 90s, John Fluevog’s Art Deco-inspired footwear collection is experiencing a renaissance with their new 2006 winter line. The dandyish Capone ankle boot (pictured) features patent leather (a typically flamboyant choice of material) and a pink lining sobered by a grey colorway and classic brogue styling. The result is a fresh approach to the Canadian cobbler's tradition of making surprising shoes that will still delight even the most hardcore of shoe fetishists. The Capone is $259 from Fluevog.
