0TSB: To what degree does your love of women’s footwear seep into men’s footwear?
Manolo: Manolo loves all the shoes! The Manolo’s love of women’s shoes is the powerful aesthetic impulse, driven as it is by the desire to recognize and celebrate beauty in the particular. While the Manolo’s love of men’s shoes is more concrete and acquisitive. Nothing is as satisfying as wearing beautifully made, bespoke shoes, whose appeal is subtle and more personal for the Manolo than his love of women’s shoes, which is more intellectual and abstract.
