GQ has announced an exclusive new collaboration with the
luxury shoe retailer, Kurt Geiger. The collaboration means that every
copy of the March issue of GQ will carry a Kurt Geiger gift card.
These cards will come ready-loaded with £15 to spend in any Kurt Geiger
boutique around the country. In addition, ten randomly selected cards
have been pre-loaded with £1000.
GQ is currently the only menswear title to produce an annual shoe guide, The
Ultimate GQ Guide to Shoes, in association with Kurt Geiger. Rounding up the best
footwear, from the big designers to the High Street, GQ selects the must-have
investments, picks socks with real appeal, and interviews today's most influential
designers. The supplement also highlights some of the most significant designer
collaborations, where Britain's traditional shoemakers have joined forces with cool
fashion houses to come up with interesting projects.
Dylan Jones, Editor of GQ, commented on the partnership with Kurt Geiger, "Whether
you top up the card and gift it on, or spend it on yourself, there's no excuse not
to indulge in some serious shoe shopping. GQ has long eschewed covermounts,
maintaining a policy of only offering our discerning readers genuine added value,
whether in the form of editorial supplements or retail offers the stylish GQ man
will really respond to, and our March issue will provide both."
