J.Crew teamed up with Brooklyn-based Blackstock & Weber for the latest addition to its ‘Brands We Love’ series. Handmade in England, the limited-edition Ellis loafer features suede-and-pony-hair uppers with leather soles. A second exclusive B&W style will be available in a few weeks. The Ellis is part of the first wave of products to hit stores under Brendon Babenzian, the former creative director of Supreme and Noah founder recently appointed head of J. Crew Men’s. The collaboration is also a kind of homecoming for Blackstock & Weber founder Chris Echevarria, who worked at J.Crew’s first menswear-only boutique – the Liquor Store in TriBeCa.
