Four Horsemen / 4HS Viberg Saddle Oxford







Handmade in Victoria, BC exclusively for Four Horsemen Shop.
The 4 Horsemen Supplies Saddle Oxford is the second installment in our ongoing capsule collection with local footwear manufacturers Viberg Boot. Drawing inspiration from a classic saddle shoe design, our take on Viberg’s 145 Oxford features a distinct two-tone upper and hand perforated quarters. The vamp and counter are done in Ice Mocha Chrome Excel, while the quarters are Vintage Tan. This combination of leathers results in a complimentary colourway, as well as a subtle contrast between the high shine and matte leathers. The iconic white Vibram Christy Sole, large brass eyelets and leather laces lend a work boot feel to an otherwise sleek derby shoe. The Oxford is the perfect silhouette for the Summer season, but is appropriate just about all year round.

Crumpled City Map / Paris





My friend Emanuele has design these Crumpled City Maps.
100% waterproof and super resistant. How many times have you driven
yourself mad trying to fold a map along the original creases?
How many times have you been tempted to screw it into a ball and
stuff it in your pocket or bag?

Here is the map you've always wanted: it is soft, extra-light, beautiful to look at
and doesn't mind being ill-treated. It is truly indestructible. Thanks to the original graphics, each map makes it possible to easily find your way around the city you are visiting.

The map also has an index of all the Monuments, Museums, art Galleries, Buildings, Historical Places and Parks that can be easily found on the map. But there's more, an original list of the city's Soulsights. Each map proposes 10 “SoulSights”, places that are chosen to excite you. These are places filled with intense emotions that are brought to life by the people passing through or stopping off in them. Visit these places and you will feel like an artist, a poet, a photographer, a director, a lover and a dreamer.
