"FacebookPinterest\n\nFirst thing to know before reading on is that the exclusive saddle shoes seen above can't be yours. Well, they can, but only if you're chosen as one of the elite Heineken 100, a group of influential gents that represent the beer brand's \"Man of the World\" approach to life. But that doesn't mean you can't appreciate the finely crafted, U.K.-made shoes you see before you. The brain child of collabo king Mark McNairy and Chris Gibbs, of West Coast menswear emporium Union LA, the shoe offers up a classic McNairy leather perforated saddle silhouette but changes things up with the addition of a Heineken green rubber sole. This pair is the second covetable menswear piece Heineken has put out recently, joining Public School's camo duffel, that makes us want to work a bit harder at this whole influencer thing - something McNairy and Gibbs have down pat. Click through for a clip where the duo talks about their long working relationship, why design should never be over thought, and what makes a collaboration like this one worth doing in the first place...\n\n"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
