After remarking on one of his employee’s lacquered red nail polish, Christian Louboutin had the idea for his most fabulous finish – the lacquered red soles that are now an iconic symbol in footwear. The Chambeliss oxfords are blessed with this detail; it adds an eye-catching dose of high-fashion flair to their sleek silhouette. Please note, Christian Louboutin’s signature red lacquered soles will wear out when tried on a hard surface other than carpet; this is normal wear and tear and is not considered to be a manufacturing defect. Please try these shoes on a carpeted surface, as any damage to the soles may prevent us from accepting returns.
