Coclico Autumn/Winter 2011 Picks

We will be doing a special preview of Coclico‘s Spring/Summer 2012 collection during the next few weeks, but in the interim, I wanted to share several of my favorite styles from the Autumn/Winter 2011 collection – currently available at Coclico’s Nolita boutique as well as online. 


Coclico is committed to ethical manufacturing. Their website’s practices description states the following in regards to leather: “We are using more vegetable tanned leathers. These leathers have a beautiful, hand-finished patina from tanning agents derived from bark, fruit, and seeds. We know that sustainability is not as simple as using veg-tanned leather. It’s about our tanneries maintaining environmentally responsible practices. We like to reward tanneries who can prove certified standards with our business. This includes water quality maintenance, efficiency practices, and chemical sequestration. It is also desirable to use local sources close to the shoe factory whenever possible.”
