Each Christian Louboutin’s men’s shoe is
created through a bespoke process developed
for each style. For Spring/Summer 2016’s new

To preserve an unmarred red lacquered sole,
a unique sole fusion process was developed
by the artisans in our Naples factory. The
“Cousin” in each style’s name is, in fact, a
subtle reference derived from the French
“cousu” or “sewn.”

Spring/Summer 2016 also sees the addition
of several new styles of bags to the men’s
leather goods collection. Fresh styles include
backpacks Apoloubi, perfect for the
adventurer, and Explorafunk, suited to an
urban explorer. Handheld Trictrac is an
elegant and edgy update to the classic
portfolio; the Benech Messenger, whether
carried cross-body, on the shoulder, around
the waist or by hand, is versatile enough for
work or travel.

To launch the Spring/Summer 2016 men’s
collection, photographer and filmmaker René
Habermacher and The Stimuleye crew
collaborated with Christian Louboutin on a
series of images inspired by the ‘La Sape,’ an
acronym for Société des Ambianceurs et des
Personnes Élégantes (The Society of
Ambiance-Makers and Elegant People) and its
adherents, ‘les sapeurs.’
