In 2004 two talented young designers and two marketing students decided to pool their abilities and channel their personal experience into an ambitious project: with great creativity, expertise and fashion focus they designed their first D.A.T.E. sneakers. The result was a label that meets the high standards of the "Made in Italy" tradition and convinces customers with carefully chosen materials, high quality and skilled craftsmanship.

With its bags and accessories German brand MCM has stood for luxury, elegance and skilled craftsmanship since its founding in 1976. Over the past few years MCM has evolved into an international fashion brand with a range of extraordinary product lines. The brand opened new branches in over 25 countries including Germany, Italy, Great Britain, China and the USA thereby rapidly conquering new markets in the global luxury segment. 2009 saw the dawn of a new era with the MCM New York Collection and the opening of 15 departments in the best Saks Fifth Avenue stores.

The collection by Mika from Japan boasts an extraordinarily striking and artisan feel. Designer Mika Mochizuki is a mere 30 years old and considers herself a perfectly normal girl with a passion for shoes. She sees designing footwear as a way to live her creativity.
