The New Shoes on Our Radar
As we round the corner into the tail end of summer, it might be time to update your shoe rotation. Maybe this list will help get you going in the right direction. There are so many great styles dropping these days, we thought we would pull a few of our current favorites to showcase. From upgraded classic sneakers and durable trail runners to some handsome and hard-wearing loafers, these are the shoes our team can't stop talking about.
Our Picks |
Camden Loafer
Looking for a substantial loafer to round out your summer fits and take you well into the fall? Look no further. J.Crew's new take on the old school slip-on is built from sturdy leather from C.F. Stead, an English tannery that's been crafting quality hides since the early 1900s. It sits atop a chunky—but not too thick—Vibram rubber lug sole for added traction and durability.
$248 by J.Crew
Zurich Slide
The Birkenstock craze continues. These suede slides offer a little more coverage than the ubiquitous Arizonas and will look as good on tanned ankles as they will with a soft pair of socks. Sport them with shorts, denim or even your washed and worn workwear pants. In short, there's no wrong way to wear them and they only get better the more you have them on.
$135 by Birkenstock
574 Suede Sneaker
The 574 could be considered the signature New Balance sneaker. It utilizes a mesh and suede upper with an EVA midsole to create a comfortable, timeless shoe that'll get you from home to the office, and anywhere in between without missing a step. And the fresh blue colorway helps it stand apart from the sea of neutral white and grey kicks.
$110 by New Balance
 | The sales and discounts our team is currently watching. |
 Pretty much the gold standard when it comes to boxer briefs. These classic stretch trunks are now marked way down. So pick up a three-pack while they’re on sale.
|  These minimalist ceramic earbuds have gained a cult following as a legit AirPods alternative. They offer impressive sound for the price and now they’re even more affordable.
|  A professional-grade dive watch that (thanks to its solar movement) delivers near-perpetual timekeeping with incredible accuracy. And now, it’s nearly half off.
