Copy, the four-year-old men’s brand known for its upstreet, contemporary styling, is launching a footwear line for the fall.
Inspired by travel and classic silhouettes, the debut collection features shoes that are one part vintage, one part sneaker and another dress shoe, and come in five styles, each available in three distinct color ways.
“I have always wanted to add footwear to the Copy range and have had a fetish for experimental shoe design for a long time,” said Copy founder and designer Murphy Martines. “Now, working with Four Star Distribution, it was a natural fit. This is their area of expertise and is potentially a major growth area for the brand,” Martines added, referring to the brand’s newest joint venture with the group owner of C1RCA.
Ranging from the futuristic “Elevate” high-top to the modern low-top “Studio” and button-enhanced “Tap,” the footwear forms a natural complement to the fall apparel line and comes in colors such as black, white, purple, aqua blue, slate blue, griffin gray and soft yellow. Made from full-grain leather, patent leather, suede and canvas, the collection is expected to retail from $75 to $150 at better department and specialty stores.
