Campillo Shows New Boots and Loafers With Mariano Shoes, Features Nike Total 90 Sneakers at Fall 2026 Show

Mexican designer Campillo teamed up again with APICCAPS, the Portuguese association of leather goods and footwear, for its fall/winter 2026 footwear and accessories offering during New York Fashion Week.

This season, the Portuguese organization helped pair Campillo with footwear manufacturer Mariano Shoes for their latest collaboration together, which includes a classic boot in four colors, and leather loafers with artisanal leather soles.

Campillo also worked with Portuguese leather goods manufacturer Belcinto in a range of bags and belts. Materials used across the footwear and bag collections were developed as part of the BioShoes4all project, which aims to reinforce APICCAPS’ dedication to innovation, research, and advanced material development.

In an interview backstage before his Saturday morning show, designer Patricio Campillo described the making of his signature boots this season.

“I wanted to have the shape of a boot which is reminiscent of the Charro (a term to historically describe the horseman from the countryside of Mexico), but also that felt very contemporary, and something that felt very structured and very polished,” Campillo told FN. “But the boot also kind of takes out the Western element of it by just refining it and also taking some risks when it comes to color, by changing the color palette that we normally use.”

As for how the shoes compliment the read-to-wear this season, Campillo maintained that shoes can change the way an entire look comes together. “Shoes can make the look really sophisticated by using some really nice loafers, or if you’re wearing a more relaxed look, loafers can change the whole vibe as well,” the designer said. “The main thing that the footwear I choose for my collection is that it should elevate the whole concept.”

Aside from his partnership with Mariano Shoes and APICCAPS, Campillo also styled his looks with a range of Nike Total 90 sneakers. The soccer-inspired silhouette that was provided by the Swoosh, was a nod back to Campillo’s lifelong passion for connecting sport and fashion on the runway.

“When I was a kid, and I I didn’t know I was gay, and I was playing soccer with my friends, I think my favorite part about wearing those Total 90 shoes was that they were really nice,” Campillo admitted. “And now that I’m in a different place, and I’m a different person from when I was back then, the shoes have some nostalgic element to it. And now I wear them because they’re beautiful, not because I play soccer.”
