I absolutely LOVE F+B, one of the best shoe brands I've seen, IMHO. Wonderful stuff, and very underrepresented in the US

Italy. They make wonderful shoes. They are a bit on the rugged/slightly distressed side though, so I'm not sure if you'll like them a lot for your personal style. The closest brand I can think in relation is Collection Privee. I've been trying to find their website for ages, but I don't think they have one.

Oh I LOVE them! I really really wanted the brown i think it was suede? buckle boots from fall 04....

ok thanks faust - I liked the pics ostelios posted. It does look like part of the artisanal thing. I like the little black maryjane shoe!...just thinking actually ....sometimes the soles of shoes are very beautiful aren't they....?

 

[softgrey]

doesn't tootsie plohound sell these?...

thanks for the topic ostelios...
so...is it mainly shoes or is it also a full collection?...

 

[oStelios]

mainly shoes,bugs and accessories
they're absolutely anti-publicity,no website...like collection prive?

 

[Hanne]

Does F+B have a website? Because I want a pair of boots from that brand..and I live in Arkansas, so theres no way there is a store near me I can get a pair from.

Call Gimmieshoes in San Francisco, or Otto Tootsi Plohound in New York. There are also several pairs on yoox.com, I just bought a pair today.

Alright, awesome.

I have another question, but it's nothing related to F+B boots. It's about these belts I saw in an ad. Think you could help me out if I showed you pictures?

You can also purchase their footwear online at net-a-porter though obviously not mens

Hmmm, never seen anything but the shoes in stores, but I'd be curious to see a picture.

 

[Meg]

does anyone know where i could get a list of stockists or contact the company in some way? NAP isn't going to be carrying the boots I want in the color I want and I want to see if a.it comes in the color I want (black of all things) and b.who stocks it here in London....

 

[Tinuviel]

they do clothes? I'm still longing for their black buckled boots.

 

[oStelios]

I the shark shoe, it was a limited edition of 2 or 3 years ago
also the belt is a beauty
and what to tell about the torero's shoes
