The Competition

I came across a blog post by Alex Icon that found pretty interesting. Alex was experiencing the same problem I, and many others, have in that his pants were dragging on the ground causing his pants to become frayed. So he hit the internet in search for a solution. He found 10.

Ranking #1 on his list – Carter’s Cuff Clips
Here is what he had to say about CCC:
These gems solve the problem of the jeans dragging on the ground, and they do it in style. For an easy $100 you can have these jeweler designed limited edition cuff clips. They attach to your shoe, and then to your hem, thus supporting the pant leg with the shoe. For all the ballers in the crowd who arent wearing suits, but scuffed jeans.

Carter’s Cuff Clips x Barometer NYC

I’m personally not a jeweler, but I really wanted to make some unique, one-of-a-kind cuff clips. So I reached out to Jenna Wainwright of Barometer NYC to design five pairs of cuff clips. There is only one of each design so don’t wait too long to get your pair (link).

Carter’s Cuff Clips x C.Williams

I wanted to create a cuff clip that was built into the shoe. After a few hours of browsing the internet, I came across some pretty cool custom shoe concepts. The Story was featuring a couple pairs of custom shoes designed by C. Williams. I followed up on the article and ended up getting in touch with C. Williams. We bounced a few ideas off each other and then I sent him a pair of cuff clips to work with. It was a pretty incredible collaboration project as we completed the first ever Carter’s Cuff Clip x C.Williams Shoe.

The cuff clip is built into the shoe, and with the removable charm, you can clip the charm onto the tongue of your shoe for when you’re wearing the kicks with shorts. This was extremely fun to work on!

Carter’s Cuff Clips Featured In The New York Times Sunday Style

An editor from the New York Times contacted me asking if they can use Carter’s Cuff Clips in an upcoming piece they were working on featuring shoe jewelry. Of course!
I sent them a pair so they could take their own photos, so no that is not my leg in the picture. The feature ran in the New York Times Sunday Style on January 14, 2007.
