Our Legacy have stepped firmly into the footwear realm this spring with some great looking suede oxfords and wingtips. While there is no denying the look and style of the shoes online, I had to be slightly skeptical on how well made the shoes were, as they retail for a pretty good price and most footwear this style is best done by traditional bands. The shoes are made in Portugal and I had a nice look at the these fall models at Capsule LV this week. The leather uppers felt really nice on both shoes, and they even felt really good on my foot. I am a 42 in Common Projects and these fit me in a 43 for those of you looking for a size reference. The bottom of the sole seemed quite slick, and unlike the more subtle leather sole which normally would need to be brought to the cobbler. I'm not sure if they have finished the bottom with something more durable, or if it's the slightly cheaper materials put together in Portugal. I wasn't blown away by the quality, but I was far from disappointed. I think the shoes look and feel great, so for the price they are a great option. There is also going to be a boot for the fall, but we'll have to wait to see that one.

Re you considering buying any of there footwear?
I am considering. I am in the market for navy suede and they might be the suppliers this spring. Definitely not opposed to the idea.
I really like the top shoe. I love that style. I think it always works in a dark brown leather...although I suppose it's a bit of a conservative pick
The oxfords are very nice but they look a bit hefty for spring summer don't ya think ....
AZ- They arent for spring summer, check the post title.
The inner tag looks cool to me from the pics
Ben thats true shoulda noticed that - on another note ive noticed alot of companies are getting there shoes made in portugal YMC,HUDSON,Nicole Farhi and most of CLARKS are made there.
Where are the oxfords? These are both Derby style.
love the shape of the bottom shoe.
Where to see more items of the FW09 the collections seem really amazing so far, i just cant wait TBS to put them online after the sale
