FIFTH AVENUE SHOE REPAIR

Fifth avenue shoe repair finds inspiration in conserving tradition as well as breaking those same norms. In the crossing of Goodge and Charlotte, West London, lies the inspiration behind this label. The shoe repairers of fifth avenue, an old traditional shoe maker’s shop with genuine knowledge and love for the craft. The business has gone from father to son in three generations, dating back from 1937. Since classic tailoring, pattern making and authentic knowledge always stays a priority and a necessity in the collections, this Swedish label was named Fifth avenue shoe repair in 2004. The design studio and atelier is situated in the creative centre of Stockholm, Södermalm in Sweden. Our creative focus will always lie in draping technique where the silhouette progresses through sculpting. In contrast, these advanced shapes are combined with classic wear such as the old man’s chino or the classic white shirt. Attention to detail and love of fabrics is something we honour and for which we stay ready to walk an extra mile in order to achieve. Exploring femininity and masculinity is a constantly recurring issue and will always be addressed in our collections. The colour range has a solid base of black, white with all shades of grey in between. For every season new colours are chosen, mainly in faded shades.
