The smooth, sensual lines of the Christian Louboutin Iriza pumps may be softly spoken, but the designer’s inspiration for creating shoes like these is one of pure rebellion. After a visit to Paris’ National Museum of African and Oceanic Arts in 1976, Mr Louboutin spotted a sign that forbade women from wearing heels, claiming they damaged the building’s wooden flooring. From that moment, he endeavoured to manifest footwear that would break the rules and – most importantly – empower. 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.
