Or at least quite a bit more stylish. You see, I have been looking for a while for a great pair of slip on shoes to wear when running out for a quick errand, or similar. I have worn Vans for the last several months, but never really loved the look. I recently found out that Rothy’s started making shoes for men, and I have to say I am impressed. Their Driving Loafers, for example, look nice, yet are casual enough to be worn even with joggers…

Read moreThe Best Alternative To Loro Piana's City Walk Loafer
Loro Piana is the current king of beautiful articles of menswear priced so absurdly and unjustifiably high their catalogue is more like a museum to look at and appreciate than it is an actual place to buy from. Still, their style sense is, as ever, quite on the money, and the items they produce are usually very special. Perhaps their biggest hit of late is their City Walk loafer — a lightly colored gum rubber soled shoe with a leather (usually suede) upper. There are no laces, no frills, and are, I hear, quite comfortable. They have also “inspired” just about every other stylish shoe company on the planet to produce their own take on these shoes. Why? Well, because a pair of the LP ones will run you over $1,000. And you thought Gucci loafers (with decades and decades of shoe-making pedigree under their logo-buckled-belts) were expensive!…
Read moreThese Espadrilles Are The Bestpadrilles
Espadrilles make a wonderful summer shoe. They can be dressed up or down easily, come in tons of colors and patterns, and are fun without being too fun. Yet, the world of espadrilles seems to be divided into two camps. You have the super cheap and inexpensive options that fall apart right as you begin really liking them (these are usually between $15 - $30), and you have the absurdly expensive options that have suede uppers, all sorts of fancy designs, and would simply never do for a day at the beach (these can be anywhere from $95 to $400)…

The espadrilles is, perhaps, the quintessential summer shoe. It’s sleek, simple, and stylish. But it is also quite comfortable, breathable, and super easy to wear. It is just as fitting with a swimsuit and a tee as it is with the right suit — and of course everything in between…

Read moreStyle Pick: Navy Suede Driving Loafers from Oliver Cabell
Sure, the world is a bit crazy right now. And, especially with the cooler months ahead, we’re all spending more time inside than we would perhaps like to. But we still have to run out now and then. Groceries, taking out the trash, going for a quick walk around the block, and so on…

Read moreThe Super Sleek White Leather Sneaker From Beckett Simonon
It’s no secret that white leather sneakers are quite a stylish shoe. If you don’t own a pair, you should. They are an excellent final addition to any outfit. They look just as great with chinos and a polo as they do with jeans as they do with, yes, even a suit. They’re minimalist, sleek, and clean, and are, perhaps, the ultimate footwear. We’ve reviewed a couple other here on the site if you take a look around…
