Paul Mayer's luxuriously, comfortable designs keep women coming back for
multiple -- even dozens -- of pairs. Classic, yet contemporary and always
comfortable, his shoes are an addiction that we highly recommend. A
staple of the Paul Mayer collection is the simple ballet-flat, with true
ballerina construction for a perfect fit that comes in a variety of colors and
materials. A cult favorite is the cozy, a flat with lavender-scent infused
soles adding style and fragrance to collector's closets as Paul's designs
emerge in sophisticated design incarnations season after season in the most
incredible hues, textures and modern innovations in luxury footwear because we
know firsthand how incredibly brilliant he is. Mayer founded the brand in
2004 with partner, Jeff Levy. All shoes in the line are manufactured in Spain’s
Valencia region, along the Mediterranean coast by a skilled staff of 12
artisans. They craft each pair of shoes with an old-world attention to detail
that includes in-house embroidery, quilting and stitching as well as custom
tanned leather. This allows the brand to cater to each retailer’s specific
demands in with timely and consistent alacrity, with orders completed in an
unheard-of 3 to 5 weeks. When not in New
York, Paul can be found traveling to his myriad of stores across the country
meeting his loyal clientele or vacationing in his favorite spot, the Royal Hawaiian on Waikiki Beach.
