Shoe store reopens in Waikiki mall

Leather Soul has increased its retail footprint at Royal Hawaiian Center and marked its grand re-opening April 15 in a new location next to Harley-Davidson Honolulu.

The men's luxury shoe store has the exclusive rights to carry George Cleverley's footwear in the United States. G.J. Cleverley managing director George Glasgow hosted a trunk show and shared the process of hand-crafting shoes.

Leather Soul is locally owned and features an exclusive special edition line of Alden Shoes, which owner Tom Park designs in collaboration with Alden Shoe Co. The store also carries a selection of John Lobb, Edward Green, Gaziano & Girling, Whitehouse Cox and Rimowa luggage. Park recently designed a new “;Hawaii attorney's shoe.”;

“;This flagship location should also help to brand Leather Soul as we open our first U.S. mainland store in Beverly Hills,”; Park said in a news release.

Wedding shop branches out

The Wedding Cafe's Tanna Dang got tired of people being surprised that they also can find day-to-day apparel and accessories at the Ward Warehouse boutique, and realized many couldn't comprehend anything beyond the notion of weddings.

Thus, a new brand was born. Eden in Love, a Boutique by The Wedding Cafe, will have its official launch from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sunday at TWC, with games, prizes, tips and trends from house stylists and special sales.

The event is free and no RSVPs are needed.
