Vibram Wedge;
Italian rubber Company Vibram manufacture minimalist and exceptionally lightweight shoes targeted for outdoor activities such as running, hiking, sailing, kayaking, canoeing etc. The shoes replicate being barefoot, the thin soles contour to the shape of the foot and move flexibly. Some of the shoes have separate sections for the toes. Shoe designer Mr Hare recently created 'The Vibram Wedge', which allowed these heavier looking boots to be lightweight and comfortable; rather than the shoes feeling heavy and tough, this allowed a unique feeling similar to wearing lightweight trainers.

What
encapsulates London fashion for you? “London is such an eclectic and unpredictable place.
This is reflected in the way people present themselves and in the broad
spectrum of designers that the city produces. London is a really good
environment to absorb what inspires you and make of it what you will. Anything
goes.”
