The Item: Swear A/W 09 Footwear

One of my benchmarks when it comes to innovation in footwear design, London's Swear shoes is at it again with their sick new releases for their Autumn/Winter 09 collection.

Featuring a plethora of models that looks strangely familiar yet new, they've successfully combined elements from different shoes to create something special. A little change of material here, a little pop of color there, and voila, a great collection that will get praises every.single.time. I just hope Theodore's or some other shop will get 'em here someway, somehow.

A sophisticated leather boot with a touch of suede

Perforated sneakers with a wingtip vibe

Patent oxfords with a contrast blue sole (love the idea!)

A simple white oxford-sneaker fusion

I love the color of the sole with the chocolate brown leather

A Swear collection would not be complete without the metallics!
