The Great Gatsby

Living the dream, Base London bring a cult classic right up to date with Gatsby, a traditional derby shoe that reveals exuberant modern touches. The flamboyant character in the Base London S/S11 story, Gatsby expresses classic British style with striking aplomb. The eccentric take on a classic British silhouette, Gatsby forms part of Base London's 'By the River' collection, celebrating the traditional British summer pastime of leisure days on the riverbank, by recreating and refreshing classic styles. Muted, yet colourful nubuck leather uppers are neatly paired with a bold and bright rubber sole unit to provide a clear juxtaposition of new and old, the result being trend led and comfortable shoe that shows off the fashion direction of the men's high street footwear label.

Gatsby will be available online at www.baselondon.com from February 2011, priced £74.99
