CAULAINCOURT X LOVE METAL by Christophe Corthay

Caulaincourt is proud to unveil an exclusive creation: LOVE MÉTAL, born from our collaboration with master shoemaker Christophe Corthay.

This project is part of our experimental line, Bandit,  a creative playground where bold craftsmanship and poetic rebellion shape our vision of style.

Christophe Corthay, an exceptional artisan with a singular universe, is the mind behind the LOVE MÉTAL pieces — sculptural rings imagined to enhance our iconic sneaker, Bandit, with a raw, symbolic and finely-crafted detail.

The Bandit Rings

Four metal emblems compose this collection, each echoing a form of “imaginary and poetic banditry”:

  • M01: The Skull, stateless

  • M02: England

  • M03: Japan

  • M04: Africa

Each ring is available in three finishes: brass (L), silver-plated (S), and black-plated (B).

Fully removable, the rings can be clipped to the rear or side of the sneaker strap.
They offer a new way to personalize your pair,  adding a sculptural accent that’s both bold and totemic to an already distinctive silhouette.

It is a true honour to collaborate with Christophe Corthay on this series — a creation that bridges shoemaking and metalwork, and gives shape to an aesthetic of controlled rebellion
