The New Shoes on Our Radar
Looking to re-evaluate the shoes in your closet? 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 some extra-cushioned road runners and rubber-soled loafers to suede derbies refreshed for spring weather, these are the shoes our team can't stop talking about.
Our Picks |
Deck Shoe
Buck Mason continues its partnership with the Japanese footwear brand, Moonstar, with this limited-edition indigo-dyed deck shoe. A new take on the first military-issued canvas shoes that would become the blueprint for all modern sneakers, this is made from a herringbone canvas twill upper that's been dyed with natural indigo, so it will age like raw denim on a natural rubber sole.
$158 by Moonstar x Buck Mason
Larson Step Weejun
Need a new pair of loafers for spring? These are it. The black and white colorway is a fresh, casual look that can be worn in all sorts of situations and these are particularly comfortable. Unlined for lightweight, flexible wear, they sit on an “XL Baltimore” shock-absorbent rubber sole, which makes for easy all-day wear and added traction.

Vomero 18 Run Sneaker
Nike calls its new Vomero 18 the brand's “softest, most cushioned ride” yet. The road runners have lightweight ZoomX foam stacked on top of responsive ReactX foam in the midsole. The uppers are minimal and extra soft, while a redesigned traction pattern offers a smooth heel-to-toe transition.

 | The sales and discounts our team is currently watching. |
 Yes, these handcrafted Oliver People’s sunglasses are, in fact, nearly half off. That rarely happens, so grab the Italian-made shades while you can.
|  Classic leather loafers from Ralph Lauren—which you often see in his look books and ad campaigns—are now on sale for 35% off.
|  Sure, vintage vests are great finds at thrifting bins, but few discoveries actually have the right color and technical specs to serve as the perfect last-minute layer.
