Charles Jeffrey’s label Charles Jeffrey LOVERBOY has debuted its Spring/Summer collection which revolves around the beauty of queer life. The collection is explored in a short fashion film called PHWOARRR, and recruits the help of British footwear label George Cox for the range. Jeffrey's tartan design is featured on the mudguards of the ‘D-ring Creeper’ loafer's black leather upper, which surrounds contrasting woven toe boxes. The shoe’s chunky platform soles complete the design while fringed buckles appear at the midpoints.
Moreover, the ‘Creeper’ boots have a smooth leather exterior and similar design elements. The high-top boot wears golden ring eyelets above a neck strap embellished with silver sun and moon charms, while the toe boxes are textured and rest atop the sole sections.
The Charles Jeffrey LOVERBOY x George Cox footwear collaboration is available now via the former brand’s website.
