Prada Fall Winter 2010 Mens Bags, Shoes And Accessories
Get ready for a new season of lust worthy Prada bags, shoes and accessories, inspired by the military and functionality. For guys who still have not been able to 'part' with their backpacks, good news! There are quite a number of styles to satisfy their 'schoolboy' memories. Printed geometric patterns or camouflage patterns? Your pick!
Military theme is dominant in the collection. The camouflage pattern goes colourful on highly functional 'Cordura' duffels and has also been printed on Saffiano leather for slim flat totes which add some 'grunge' to your corporate looks! Deliberate tarnished effect are also applied around edges of small leather goods such as chain pouches and wallets to give it a unique vintage finish.
What's most appealing to me, however, are the shoe collection with a selection of leather lace-ups, slip ons, brogues and boots. I love those slip ons that came with a fringe flap. The bi-coloured yellow and brown version somehow tickles my fancy. Same for the black version with a 'riding-harness' type metal hardware that wraps around the top of the shoe. Interesting details but never overpowering.
Looks like a trip to Prada stores is inevitable in the next couple of weeks!
