It’s about time that Christian Louboutin showed some love to the guys.
Every time you go into a Louboutin store, the guy’s shoes get some random corner with minimal selection to choose from, and if you happen to go to a department store that sells Louboutin shoes for women, there is no guarantee that the men’s shoe department will also carry the brand.
Christian Louboutin has changed all of this by opening up a Christian Louboutin Hommes store in Paris.
He tells WWD that the men “come in and they say, ‘What do you have with studs?” Other top sellers so far include high-top sneakers (with studs) for $993, or the even-fancier ones that are pavéd in crystals for $2,278.

Louboutin has only been making men’s shoes since 2008 and has since become very successful and popular with fashionable men worldwide, so it was only fitting there be a store dedicated to the guys. A pretty interesting addition to the store is a “tattoo room,” where customers will be able to engrave their shoes to their liking.
Hopefully one day we will get one here in the United States, but at least it’s good to know that Mr. Louboutin has kept the fellas in mind!
