The shoes you should be wearing this season, from those who know
Words: Alex Woodhall
Whilst a gentleman can get by on just five essential pairs of shoes, variety is, as they say, the metaphorical spice of life. With the plethora of footwear styles expanding well beyond basic brogues and derbies, we enlisted the adept advice of some of the shoe industry’s most informed for their top picks for what shoes to look out for to inject some rakish nous into your wardrobe this spring-summer.
Suede tassel loafer
That’s the selection from Jason Simmonds of Herring. The versatile shoe has the hallmarks of a summertime essential – breathable fabric, slip-on styling and a hint of panache to offset the simplicity that often comes with warm weather attire:
“Suede tassel loafers bring colour, style and a touch of flamboyance to a relaxed style that can be dressed up with chinos and blazer or down with jeans.”
