Shoe Extra Credit on "Ready to Roll": Jeff Mandel

Sarah Mirk posted earlier about the "Ready to Roll" matinee bike fashion show at Portland Fashion Week last Saturday, but there was one last minute addition that didn't make it into any of the credits: Jeff Mandel, of ExIT Shoes, who I once profiled for the Merc—he's a completely mind blowing shoe maker in the old school style, trained in Europe, and he had two pairs of shoes in the show, which he says were inspired by classic cycling shoes. Peep them as they appeared here and here, and get the close up on my favorite of the two right over here:
