Designer launches own shoe brand because of lack of quality in the market
04/12/2013
Made from supple, full-grain leathers, suede and patents, using traditional methods and tooling, the first Young Soles London range will become available in the early part of 2014. Ms Shill sourced the leathers herself from a variety of European tanneries, basing her selection on softness, colour and texture to achieve “the perfect balance of comfort and style”.
Designs are inspired by classic styling and heritage, “re-inventing” well loved styles such as T-bar and Mary Jane for girls, and brogues for boys. For her inaugural range, Ms Shill has worked with outsource manufacturing partners in Portugal.
