Christian Louboutin - the Right Side of Crazy

The mere mentioning of Christian Louboutin to a fashion conscious lady is enough to incite a frenzy.  The beautiful designs and signature red soles are enough to get heads spinning.  Ladies in Louboutins are famous for stirring looks of envy from other female fashionistas and looks of amazement from hot-blooded males.  If the era of Sex and the City was Manolo Blahnik’s time, today is the day of Christian Louboutin.

But wait, Opumo Editors’ Notes is a men’s lifestyle blog, so why are you talking about shoes for females?  Well, that’s a good question, and we have a good answer for you.  If you think Louboutin’s ladies range make a statement, you’ve got to check out his men’s collection.

Admittedly not to everybody’s taste, Louboutin’s mens shoes are instantly recognisable.  If you have an affinity for high-tops, check out the Louis Pik Pik models below.  It’s not just the spikes that make these shoes sharp and stylish.

If spikes don’t take your fancy and you err more on the side of subtlety, the newly released Metal Henri Flat might be just what you’re looking for.  The sleek slip-on shoe is one of Louboutin’s most conservative, yet the understated wingtip details and the metal toebox make the shoe uniquely different.  Get a glimpse of the new shoe below.

No doubt, a pair of men’s Louboutins will cost you a pretty penny.  But if you’re in a position to buy a pair, enjoy!  Oh, and don’t forget to tweet us a picture.
