Patent Leather Paris Texas Shoes: The Lidia in Every Colour, Tortoise Print and the Patent Boots
Patent Leather Paris Texas Shoes: The Lidia in Every Colour, Tortoise Print and the Patent Boots
Patent is the Paris Texas finish. The Lidia was drawn for it, the house colours were mixed for it, and 81 of the 316 styles at Luxury Handbags are patent calf, in 21 shades, at $1,150 to $2,020. It is also the entry price in every shape, because the brand prices patent below suede, mirror and print. This guide covers what the patent is, which shapes and colours it comes in, the tortoise printed version, the patent boots, and how to keep the shine.
Key facts
- 81 patent styles at Luxury Handbags in 21 shades, $1,150 to $2,020; 73 of them are Lidia mules, slingbacks, pumps, sabots and sandals.
- The patent is a lacquered calf leather, made in Italy; the sole is leather, lacquered to match the upper on the Lidia styles.
- Patent is the cheapest finish in each shape: the Lidia mule is $1,150 in patent against $1,240 in mirror leather and python-print.
- Patent shades this season include Black, Rouge Noir, Amarena, Taupe, Almond, Beige, Honey, Avorio, Optic White, Texas Rose, Desert Rose, Celadon, Deep Teal, Violet Black, Mustard, Ebano and Tortoise print.
- Patent boots: the Stiletto knee boot at 105 and 60 mm, the Vera ankle and knee boots, the Rouge Noir Stiletto and the Marina platform mule.
The patent Lidia
The Lidia 105 mule in black patent is the reference: the long toe, the covered heel, the lacquered sole, the leather insole. The 70 is the day version; the slingback and its 70 the office pair; the closed pump and the ankle-strap pump the dress-code versions; the sabot the V-cut mule; the T-strap sandal and the thong mule the summer shoes. In colour, Rouge Noir, Taupe and Celadon are the three to look at first. The Lidia mule guide and the slingback guide rank every colour.
Tortoise printed patent
The tortoise is a printed patent, a warm brown shell pattern under the lacquer, and it is the one patent that reads as a collector’s piece rather than a basic. The Lidia 105 mule in tortoise, the slingback and the Marina 145 platform mule carry it. It goes with black, camel and denim and with nothing else patterned.
Patent boots
The Stiletto 105 in black patent is the evening knee boot, the Stiletto 60 in patent the day one. The Vera 105 ankle boot in black patent and the Vera 85 knee boot in patent are the stiletto versions. The Marina 130 in black patent is the platform mule, the tallest shoe in the range with the pitch of a 100. The Stiletto boot guide places them.

Keeping the shine
Patent needs less than people think and tolerates less than people do. Wipe it with a barely damp cloth and buff dry; a drop of patent cleaner on a cloth for a scuff; never a solvent, never a leather cream, which clouds the lacquer. Keep pairs apart in the wardrobe, because patent transfers colour to patent, and keep pale patent out of direct sun. The lacquered sole will scuff on the first wear; a cobbler can fit a thin rubber protector. The care guide has the routine for every finish.
