ROBERT BARAKETT LAUNCHES FIRST MEN’S FOOTWEAR COLLECTION

Robert Barakett has debuted its first men’s footwear collection. The Canadian apparel brand has gained an impressive following and is excited to bring its high-quality shoe collection to market. Viewings of the Fall 2025 range are now underway at the brand’s New York, Montreal, and Toronto showrooms. The collection will also be showcased at the Dallas, Chicago, Charlotte, and Los Angeles trade shows. The launch of footwear follows the brand’s latest venture into womenswear with the recent launch of the Barakett Women’s Tee.

“The Robert Barakett brand combines effortless designs and refinement in every piece,” said Robert Barakett, Creative Director and Founder. “Our new footwear line embodies the brand’s signature sophistication and attention to detail, furthering Robert Barakett’s evolution into an authentic lifestyle brand.”

Designed and crafted in Italy, the collection of modern casual footwear includes stylish yet versatile options such as sneakers, loafers, chukka boots, and more. Premium materials include high-quality calfskin leathers and suede, as well as special washed finishes. Prices for the collection will range from $225 to $395 USD, positioning it as a premium yet accessible addition to the Robert Barakett lineup.

Eric Edmonds, National Sales Director of Footwear, will lead this exciting new division. With over 30 years of experience in the footwear industry with brands such as Cole Haan, Allen Edmonds, and Johnston & Murphy, Edmonds brings expertise, passion, and leadership to the Robert Barakett team. He will also take over sales responsibilities for all categories of Robert Barakett products in the Rocky Mountain and West Coast regions. Jeff Block, Director of Sales, will continue to oversee sales for shoes and sportswear across the rest of the country.
