Once you've decided on your winter coat, the next thing you need to decide on is your footwear! The FASHION HEADLINE editorial team patrols the women's shoe department on the second floor of the main building of Isetan Shinjuku. Together with our buyers, we bring you our top picks for winter shoes in four installments.

The third installment is "velvet," which was also a popular material in the 2016-2017 Fall/Winter collection. Wear this trendy material on your feet and enjoy a stylish look that's perfect for this year. Its smooth, glossy texture creates a retro, luxurious feel. We'll be introducing four items from popular shoe brands.
