American footwear pioneer G.H. Bass continues its long-lasting relationship with Britain’s Fred Perry by tapping on the Amy Winehouse Foundation to celebrate the late artist.

As the original creator of the penny loafer, G.H. Bass delivers an inventive approach to the classic silhouette. With its collaborators alongside, the brand takes inspiration from Winehouse’s sportswear identity, which often clashed with pin-up styling. The trio celebrates her playful personality through crocodile-printed leather loafers featuring gilded hearts on the heel counters that reflect Amy’s arm tattoos. Fred Perry’s laurel wreath logo is pinned on the tongues, while collaborative branding enhances the insoles.

Take a closer look at the G.H. Bass x Fred Perry x Amy Winehouse Foundation loafer collaboration in the gallery above. The shoe is available to purchase now via the G.H. Bass website.

In case you missed it, Gerrit Jacob reveals flaming adidas Superstar, Gazelle, and Forum 84 collaborations.
