A Mano promises to fill the big shoes left by Ped, which occupied the space until September of 2006. Owner Nealy Blau intends to bring handmade shoes from Italy (hence the name A Mano, by hand), and other small European designers you won't find elsewhere. Look for Miho Masui, a line of feminine low wedges in fine Italian leather; Chie Mihara, whimsical, vintage-inspired wearable heels from Spain; and classics such as the Italian tall boots by Fiorentini + Baker. A selection of accessories will be available as well including Jamie Joseph's gorgeous jewelry with amazing stones.
