Idris and Sabrina Elba and their longtime friend fashion designer Christian Louboutin have collaborated on a third edition of a capsule collection entitled “Walk a Mile in My Shoes.”

“Walk a Mile in My Shoes” is a call to action about empathy. 

Co-designed by both Idris and Sabrina Elba, the collection is inspired by African culture, with 100% of the proceeds going to charities including The Gathering for Justice, Elman Peace, Immediate Theatre, The Raining Season, Casa 93 and AfriKids.

Louboutin was the first designer shoe I ever bought and to see them used this way makes me feel extremely proud. The organizations we’ve helped have shown us amazing improvements and they have been able to give back so much more which fills us with pride, Sabrina shared. 

Styles in the collection features braided detail, which is a testament to the bond of the trio.

With “Walk a Mile in My Shoes” the braid has been a kind of fil rouge through that collection, a kind of homage to different cultures in Africa. Idris, Sabrina and I have such different identities – the braid symbolizes how our vision is stronger when connected, Louboutin shared.

The latest “Walk a Mile in My Shoes” collection is currently available with the exclusive partner Saks at select locations and saks.com as well as at Christian Louboutin boutiques and christianlouboutin.com.
