Footwear line for Rag & Bone

Apparel label Rag & Bone are expanding their brand by adding a footwear line to their collection. The New York-based company is to introduce a collection for men and women, each with three styles in a variety of colorways. The men's category will include sneakers, oxfords and loafers, while the women's will feature oxfords, loafers and ballet flats. Prices will range from $350 to $515.

"The clothing has always been inspired by what is timeless and well made, without being so fashion driven - season-less rather than trendy. The same thing goes for the shoes," said Marcus Wainwright, co-owner and designer of Rag & Bone.

"We focused on classic silhouettes and used all-natural materials and custom lasts and made sure all the shoes are flexible and breathable," said Royal Elastics founder Tull Price, who is collaborating on the line

The footwear collection will first be available at the flagship store and at New York boutique Odin. Barneys New York will carry the men's sneaker in the Madison Avenue store. As the line grows, the partners plan to expand to better footwear and department stores.
