Tod’s is presenting a new concept today. After the launch of the second wave of “Dots of Life”, the Italian brand is presenting a project centered around its icon: moccasins. And this time, Tod’s turned towards iconic street style photographer Scott Schuman, aka the Sartorialist. When he started, Scott Schuman attempted “to define Style” by searching where everyone else was, from Lagerfeld to Armani and Yves Saint Laurent in between: the streets. That’s how Schuman ended up immortalizing designers, fashion journalists, entrepreneurs, and trendy students alike all wearing one of the key styles from the summer collection: Marlin moccasins.
From Paris to Milan and New York in between, Tod’s is bringing this style that was initially launched in the 80s into a more modern light. Characterized by its famous white rubber sole, the shoe is ideal for boating or a walk in town. A light and charismatic moccasin, its sole unites rubber and noble materials – a fruit of the maestria of Tod’s artisans who innovated by applying fabrication techniques normally used for gloves… The Marlin was chosen by Scott to illustrate fashion, or rather his own vision of style. Throughout shots with a number of different impressions, Scott Schuman’s keen eye has captured the unique and versatile style of each individual wearing a pair of Marlins. This fashion series is deliciously sleek and can be browsed on Tod’s website.
