Sweet? Let’s meet my spring-summer 2015 A-Team, shall we?
FRANKiE4 Footwear SS15-16 | MONiCA heels Oh hi MONiCA, don’t you just look fabulous today and every day. I’ll take you out any time. From a work meeting to any kind of social event, I just know you’ll fit right in and keep me from assuming a “I need to sit down RIGHT now” face. Your nude colour is oh-so flattering and works back with everything. I do like how you dress up a frock though. That’s my favourite way to wear you, which is a good thing as that’s mostly what I wear through summer. Fit: I’ve got a high arch on my left foot so went up half a size to accommodate that for an easier fit. The straps around the ankle have a buckle. More fitting tips here. Benefits: Leather upper, stable higher heel design, built-in functional footbed offering heel and arch support + the Sweet Spot which offers additional forefoot support and cushioning. Styling-You-Frankie4-Footware-Belinda-2 BELiNDA, oh the stories we could tell. Well, your tan sister could tell. We walked all over Paris, we went up the Eiffel Tower, we even ventured into Rue Cambon 31 and stood on Coco’s mirrored staircase. I felt very much at home wearing you in a Parisian summer. All the French women were working their wedges back with summer shifts and floaty frocks. Tres chic! Back home, I’m also very much in love with your stylish black colourway. I immediately feel dressed up wearing you with shorts, a skirt or a frock. Fit: I’m wearing my normal size 9 in this style and, when standing, the big toe on my longest foot (the lefty) is at the end of the shoe. The straps around the ankle have a buckle but the top of the sandal across the toes is velcro and can be adjusted. More fitting tips here. Benefits: Leather upper, stable wedge heel design, built-in functional footbed offering heel and arch support + the Sweet Spot which offers additional forefoot support and cushioning. FRANKiE4 Footwear SS15-16 | PENNi low wedge PENNi, never fear, it’s not all about size. You may not have BELiNDA’s lofty heights but you do come very nicely packaged in a seriously stylish low wedge. Love your stylish ankle-wrapping, strappy ways in tan AND black. I could switch between you both for every day and always feel dressed up whether I’m in a short frock, a maxi, shorts or jeans. Just quietly you rock a ’70s vibe denim skirt look as well. Fit: I’m wearing my normal size 9 in this style. The straps around the ankle and the top of the sandal across the toes are both velcro and adjustable. More fitting tips here. Benefits: Leather upper, stable lower wedge heel design, built-in functional footbed offering heel and arch support + the Sweet Spot which offers additional forefoot support and cushioning. FRANKiE4 Footwear SS15-16 | MARGiE sandals Oh MARGiE, you metallic minx, you. I may still be quite smitten (post-Europe) with your walnut and black sister and think that other shoe sister in walnut and white goes all right but show me a little sparkle and shine and I’m yours. Love that you’re just the right shade of gold so that – fake tan or no fake tan – you work with my skin tone. I can wear you like a neutral, with patterns and brights or just to pop a fresh white, and feel all kinds of special. Fit: I’m wearing my normal size 9 in this style. The straps around the ankle and the top of the sandal across the toes are both velcro and adjustable. More fitting tips here. Benefits: Leather upper, stable heel design, built-in functional footbed offering heel and arch support + the Sweet Spot which offers additional forefoot support and cushioning. FRANKiE4 Footwear SS15-16 | KAT sandals KAT, you now how I feel about a patent leather, don’t you? Very dressed up, that’s what. You’re the shiny punctuation point on any outfit, the sneaky flat to wear under a maxi, the ideal sandal to pack for a weekend at the beach. You’ll go the distance and look just mighty fine while you’re there. Your watermelon sister is the summer business too. Fit: I’m wearing my normal size 9 in this style. The straps around the ankle and the top of the sandal across the toes are both velcro and adjustable. More fitting tips here. Benefits: Patent leather upper, stable heel design, built-in functional footbed offering heel and arch support + the Sweet Spot which offers additional forefoot support and cushioning. FRANKiE4 Footwear SS15-16 | JENNi wedges Oh JENNi, you’re going to get me a bit of a reputation, you are. SHHH, don’t tell your cousin ELLiE but I’ve secretly fallen BIG TIME for your light, sleek, sportified ways. Can we also talk about your soft foam lining that makes me feel like my high arches are enveloped in marshmallow? I think we should. We should also talk about how you bring out my inner sporty goddess – you know how difficult she is to bring out – but she’ll happily be seen with you wearing shorts, jeans, skirts and striped frocks (she loves those almost as much as you). Fit: I’m wearing my normal size 9 in this style. JENNi, like all FRANKiE4 Footwear sneakers comes with two sets of laces, and the FRANKiE4 Footwear removable custom footbed, which you can adjust to suit your feet. More fitting tips here. Benefits: Leather upper and lining, functional footbed offering heel and arch support + the Sweet Spot which offers additional forefoot support. Includes the patented Custom Fit System plus additional laces for alternate styling. Anatomical toe shape + soft foam tow lining and they are orthotic friendly.
