Designer shoes in Mumbai? Got to be b.higgins

Admit it. You feel like Gulliver in the land of Lilliput when your peds refuse to fit into the pair of shoes you eye. You then make a mental note to pick up a few extra pairs on your next global sojourn. Relax. Now shoe couturier b.higgins comes to the rescue.

For someone who likes to be well shod but has an unusual size, b.higgins is a real boon. International collection of shoes in sizes ranging from 7 to 10 and other customised creations vie for attention.

Choose from a range of head-turning shades: warm burgundy, deep-rich cherry, camel brown, olive green, brooding tans and jet blacks. If you are a non-conformist, you will love their black-textured leather with classy red stitches. It’s sure to make a novel style statement.

Even the shapes make a detour from the regular, predictable contours—tapered cuts, low-rise fits and a mixture of pointed forms to T-shaped ones. The array includes international favourites in men’s shoes like brogues, oxfords, derbys, slip-ons, moccasins and even monk shoes.

While the Italy-imported range might cost you somewhere between Rs 10,000 and 15,000 per pair, the Indian version will come at almost half the price between Rs 5000 and Rs 10,000 per pair (subject to change).

Indian prices for impeccable cuts and superior finish, in both formal and casual footwear. What more could your little heart possibly desire?
