Saphir in New York returns this Friday as they present a new Masterclass as well as participate in the NY Super Trunk Show. For all of the Saphir fans local to the area, there is a lot to do, people to see and meet, and a great opportunity to stock up on your shoe care for the Autumn/Winter. Let’s take a look below.




The Masterclass – Friday in New York
For the first time, Saphir teams up with a shoe brand to showcase the Masterclass Series, run by Preston Soto of The Elegant Oxford and Levi Elliot of Levi’s Shoe Shine. That shoe brand is CNES. The event will also be hosted by Charles Paige, a local custom tailor of Soho, NYC. At the event, you will be able to learn about achieving a mirror shine, as well as take a look at some great shoes and super cool clothing. On top of that, you will certainly meet some great people!
Learn the Art of the Perfect Shoe Shine
Preston Soto and Levi Elliot offer a 90-minute course on how to achieve a mirror shine. Bring your favorite pair of shoes with you and learn how you, too, can achieve that shine and forever care for all of your beloved footwear.




Collaboration Between Saphir and CNES
This Masterclass will bring the Singaporean brand, CNES, to the event as well. CNES will showcase its footwear, where those interested can try on the goods and place an order should they feel so inclined.
The Host: Charles Paige — Soft Luxury Clothing and Tailor Jeans
The event is hosted by my friend, Lewis Malvinek, founder of Charles Paige. Lewis offers a custom suit brand fused with the feeling of what I like to classify as Mediterranean chic. He can make you a super sharp cut suit or an elegant cashmere hoodie. And everything in between. As it goes, I have two tailored pairs of jeans to pick up from him
All three of these brands will also be at the Super Trunk Show on Saturday!
