Farfetch, the well-known online luxury fashion retailer, has finally unveiled the highly-anticipated Church’s x Off-White capsule footwear collection. This collection, designed by the late Virgil Abloh, made its grand debut during the Off-White “Spaceship Earth: an Imaginary Experience” show at Paris Fashion Week. Now, fashion enthusiasts and fans of both brands can finally get their hands on these one-of-a-kind pieces.
What makes this collaboration truly captivating is the merging of Off-White’s cutting-edge and unconventional fashion approach with Church’s, a British footwear brand renowned for its timeless and traditional designs. This genderless collection serves as an amalgamation of Off-White’s rebellious nature and Virgil Abloh’s philosophy of questioning everything, alongside Church’s rich artisan heritage and stylistic traditions.
Virgil Abloh’s distinctive touch is evident in his obsession with reinterpreting classic designs and infusing them with a fresh context, all while honoring their essence. The highlight of this collection is the Church’s Burwood shoe, a classic full brogue oxford featuring dovetail patterning dating back to 1953. In this collaboration, the iconic shoe undergoes a contemporary transformation. The traditional brown suede upper is replaced with black brushed calfskin, creating a visually striking contrast. To further enhance the Off-White aesthetic, the phrase “Special Events” is screen-printed in white using Off-White’s signature script on the outer side of the shoe. The shared origins of this style are emphasized through the inclusion of a trademark Off-White hangtag.
Now, fashion enthusiasts can shop the Church’s x Off-White capsule collection on both the Church’s webstore and Farfetch. By offering this collaboration, Farfetch continues to demonstrate its commitment to providing innovative and exclusive fashion options for its discerning clientele.
