Acclaimed long before it was conceived because it was awaited like the Messiah by a horde of unconditional fans who were ever more eager to see what was new in the Blanchet galaxy. So it was only natural, and even desirable for our safety, that I should create this sneaker of liberation. And to be perfectly fair, what name could I possibly have given her other than Thelma, eh? You see, you don't know yourself, because sometimes the obvious pushes you to your deepest limits. It's called Thelma after Ridley Scott's film, which marked its first resurrection, and as a tribute to Geena Davis, a magnificent actress with a toothy smile and a lanky figure. The Thelma will allow you to run around and escape from all the situations that bore you. Thanks to whom? Thanks to you. Finally, thanks to Thelma and its sole, you'll gain 3 cm in height. Isn't that great!

To maintain the leather, you need to nourish it with a generous greasy cream that will give it a wonderful complexion. If you want to give the colour a boost, you'll need to apply a coloured shoe polish. For the suede part, it's important to waterproof the material before the first use, and then frequently if you want to keep your shoes in good condition. Your cobbler will certainly be able to help you with this. Be careful to waterproof only the leather and nubuck, as glitter requires no special care other than constant attention and love.
