Don't You Step On My Blue Suede Shoes!
J.FitzPatrick Footwear Blog
by Mathew Komorowski
1y ago
"You can do anything, but lay off my blue suede shoes!" The King wasn't wrong to be protective of his blue suede shoes: They're a classic choice that always bring out something special in your outfits. Not only that, but they never get quite as much attention as they deserve; so they never run the risk of being "overdone." We love our blue shoes as much as Elvis did, so we want to share two of our favorite ways to wear this less-than-common piece. We'll start with... OPTION 1: BLUE WITH KHAKI As seen above, blue shoes pair beautifully with a classic khaki, which opens up a lot of options fo ..read more

After a long hiatus, J.FitzPatrick returns to Paris for a trunk show! I cannot even recall the last time I did a trunk show in one of my favorite European cities. It has been at least 6 years, as sad as that is! But, that is all behind us now and here I come, onward and upward for another showcasing. As usual, I will showcase at Mes Chaussettes Rouges in the 15th arrondissement. But instead of being inside their shop, I will be at their new showroom next door dedicated to trunk shows. I am quite excited about this as not only do I love Paris but also I am excited to show how far th ..read more

Menswear Meets Motorcycles

If you were a fly on the wall of our shop in downtown Manhattan, you'd know that one of the most common topics in our shop is the fact that I'm wearing the same boots yet again. "You have so many to choose from," our founder Justin will often say, "so why do you always wear the same few pairs?" The simple answer is that I love riding my motorcycle, and I hop on it every chance I get, even if it's just for my commute to our shop in downtown Manhattan. Riding an older bike is loads of fun, but undeniably involves some complications -- not least of which is the fact that it limits what ..read more

Over the years we've made hundreds upon hundreds of made-to-order shoes for clients. We do our best to photograph and catalog each pair -- even if it's just a small tweak on an existing style -- to show you as many shoes as possible. We of course love when clients come up with new ideas and color/texture combinations, but sometimes finding your next pair is as simple as appreciating what's been done before, and snapping it up in your own size! With that in mind, the made to order section on our site acts as a sort of "archive" of our shoes over the years, enabling you to order any pair we've ..read more

Feeling Blue, Part 1: How To Style Blue Tones
J.FitzPatrick Footwear Blog
by Mathew Komorowski
2y ago
It may seem like an unorthodox choice, but blue is actually a real workhorse color for footwear: It can play many roles spanning different seasons, styles, and levels of formality. In a more formal and cooler-weather context, blue shoes can effortlessly stand in for black or dark brown pairs: Just a small change in formality is exchanged for a new color option and all of the styling and accenting options that it opens up. Wear your blue shoes with your favorite navy suit for a charming tonal effect, or with grey tailoring for an easy but handsome contrast. Seen above are our ..read more
