MANILA, Philippines - While the phrase “gentlemen of today” fits TJ Trinidad, Daniel Matsunaga, Michel Lhuillier, Louis Thevenin and Francis Kong, it’s not enough: each has a personality and style that sets them apart. And when it comes to footwear, it’s their eye for the finer details that create the big difference. Sledgers, the iconic French brand for luxuriously crafted men’s leather footwear and accessories, recognizes their passion for true styling.
Actor, director and entrepreneur TJ Trinidad admits to being a footwear aficionado. “Shoes for me are very important, ever since I was a kid. It’s all about the design, comfort, and craftsmanship.”
For Francis Kong, motivational speaker, shoes always convey a credible, professional image. “I do a lot of speaking, more than 300 trainings every year. People look up to you onstage, and shoes are very important. People criticize you, they evaluate you from top to bottom, and that’s why shoes are very important for me.”
Louis Thevenin, director of Alliance Francaise in Cebu, says his shoes help him embrace change and cultural diversity. “Heading the French cultural institute and language school, I travel a lot, and if you go out of the country you need to be relaxed. Sledgers shoes do exactly that. They’re comfortable, and perfect to wear in this climate.”
For Brapanese hunk, actor and model Daniel Matsunaga, traveling and fashion are a privilege. “To fully coordinate my wardrobe, the footwear must also be elegantly stylish, not flashy or old-fashioned. Shoes are important to me, especially shoes that make me comfortable, handsome and elegant.”
Sledgers’ Elite Ambassadors share the same style principles and trademark formidability of the iconic French brand. Exclusively distributed in the Philippines by Primer Group of Companies, Sledgers premium men’s leather shoes and accessories are available in the following store locations: Sledgers boutique outlets in SM Mall of Asia, TriNoma, SM Cebu Northwing, SM Annex Davao; selected Res|Toe|Run outlets; in selected SM department stores (Makati, Mall of Asia, Cebu, North Edsa, Megamall); Rustans (Cebu, Makati, ATC Alabang and Shangrila); and Chimes Specialty Store Davao.
