Yuketen have cemented their place as one of my favorite footwear specialists in the world. The collection continues to evolve grow, experiment and turn out some of the best-looking and best-made shoes on the market. This spring will showcase one of the widest varieties of moccasins ever put forth by Yuki Matsuda, until Fall 2010 hits stores at least. Oi Polloi have given a little preview of some of the models they will have in this spring and as it turns out, as will we. With the Yuketen collection being quite difficult to find in shops outside of Japan, it's going to be nice that a few more shops will offer access to the latest collection. Angler, Ranger and Deck moccasins are probably going to be the top choices. With beautifully tanned leathers, crepe and deck soles and a very wearable colour palette will be strong points of one of the most exciting brands around today.

I see they faithfully replicated the saddle colored Bean blucher. It's absurdity to pay the amount of money they want for these.
I got my ranger moccs on ebay for one third of the retail price, a little worn, but still in great condition. Im really happy about them, extremely comfortable and looks great too.
I've been drooling over this and the other pics Oi Polloi posted on their Flickr. I can't get over how much I love this company. The profiles are just perfect. Did you (OP) happen to see the pictures of the blucher mocs that appear to have a low-cut heel? (posted on my site and Oi Polloi's Flickr) It's hard to tell if it's the angle or not, but it's peaked my attention.
feeling the dirty suede pair
The sport hunt boot was the mutt's nuts last season. They're hinting at a new run of them by the pics from Pitti. Ace company, ace designs.
Yuketen is top of the food chain when it comes to mocs.
I had only seen his work online, until I was lucky enough to feel, touch and wear a pair this weekend. The quality is amazing and I absolutely love them.
Def looking forward to see what pops up in the Stockroom.
