High-end shoes, crafted in Europe with the finest materials, all in an intimate boutique right in the heart of the capital, sounds impossible to find, doesn’t it? Yet this is exactly what the brand Timothée Paris has to offer, as it just opened its first store just steps away from Bastille.

You may have already passed by La Félicité, this stunning building-district on Boulevard Morland, without knowing that hidden within its walls lies a little gem for fashion lovers. Tucked away from prying eyes, overlooking a lush garden, the first Timothée Paris boutique, inaugurated last May, deserves all our attention. Spanning 40 m², this showcase designed by architect Kaïs Aïouch reflects the shared vision of two men: Masamitsu Hata, a talented designer, and his partner Pierre Riviere. Together, they envisioned a space that is both warm and refined, where Japanese and European influences meet. Inspired by the engawa – a Japanese veranda that blurs the boundaries between indoor and outdoor – it creates a bright and airy atmosphere, staying true to the DNA of Timothée Paris.

Craftsmanship and Exceptional Style Around the World

Here, the brand, which has been shining in the prestigious corners of stores in Tokyo and Seoul, offers high-end sneakers and shoes handcrafted in Portugal. But that’s not all: you’ll also find recycled leather belts made in Italy, alpaca wool scarves and blankets, as well as a selection of carefully curated clothing or items from collaborations with brands like the Japanese Ikiji. While most models are geared towards men, the collections are gradually expanding to include women, with sizes starting from 36 and colors to suit everyone.

Timeless pieces where elegance meets craftsmanship

The DNA of Timothée Paris is reflected in the creation of timeless pieces that blend simplicity with skill. Each pair of shoes is the result of meticulous and demanding work, where subtlety takes precedence. The brand favors leathers of the highest quality, chosen for their flexibility and delicate grain, with a light treatment that ensures comfort throughout the day. The always clean lines exude a natural elegance, even in the most casual styles like sneakers. Our favorite models? La Cabourg with its ultra-comfortable airy sole, l’Atlantique and its minimalist design, or even the calf leather moccasin, the first the brand's signature. You'll get it, Timothée Paris is the shop we dream of keeping to ourselves... but we just can't resist sharing it with those who will truly appreciate it.
