Gilded Golden-Toed Loafers

The Christian Louboutin Metal Henri Flat Has Just a Touch Of Midas

Some may say that the only thing special about the Christian Louboutin Metal Henri Flat is the amazing gold wing-tip that graces the toe, but that is all that is needed to make these shoes a hit. The slip-on shoe is made from black leather, and the only detail is a gilded metal toe.

As with many Christian Louboutin designs, these shoes aren’t going to be everyone’s cup of tea -- if you are a man who is okay with being flashy, these shoes are some of the best flashy dress shoes out there. They make a big statement, but steer away from being over-designed.

The price of these shoes is $1,095, so most people will need to save up a bit before making the purchase, which can be done through the brand’s online store.
