September is very close - so, it's time to explore the issue of shoes for the fall. We found seven brands that make concise models for all occasions - from mules and shoes in the offseason to ankle boots, which can be safely worn before the onset of winter cold. It is worth taking a note at least for inspiration.

Launching the brand, the girls wanted to make affordable shoes for ages that could be worn with anything - in a word, a new classic. The customer By Far Valentine, Sabina and Doenitz are described as "a traveler who needs beautiful and comfortable shoes for all occasions" (this is of course about city walks, not expeditions to the mountains).
