“Elite Businessmen” Sandals for $7,350
by Alison Agudo

If you’re in the market for some high-end shoes, luxury boot maker John Lobb has introduced the Spirits of Capitals collection, which includes a crocodile skin $7,350 sandal.

Designed to evoke the spirit of Dubai and known as the sandal for elite businessman, the company describes the city of inspiration for this pair of shoes as “an idea of surpassing, between sand and asphalt. A city with a high temperature climate where elite businessmen from the world over come together.”

The entire collection, which just debuted in the Middle East, has been designed by different teams assembled in each of the 11 major cities chosen for the collection. The cities that inspired the shoes are Paris, London, Taipei, New York, Tokyo, Hong Kong, Moscow, Beijing, Seoul, Geneva and Dubai.

Each pair is custom made so it could take between six to eight months to receive your pair.
