## Pennies 

  

 

‘Lads in loafers’ is a strong menswear theme. It makes sense to us: a penny loafer is a perfect crossover of casual and formal that can elevate run-of-the-mill looks into pin-sharp outfits.

## Boat Shoes 

  

 

As a like-for-like swap with trainers, boat shoes come close in terms of comfort, dexterity and weight. Style wise, they can add splashes of boho and preppiness.

## Chelseas 

  

 

Most boot styles stomp on trainers with their rugged masculinity. With fit, sole and style all working in harmony, a good Chelsea can also compete on comfort with sneakers.

## Strap/Belt Shoes 

  

 

Brands are experimenting again with strap and buckle design, using chunkier metals, larger buckles and even adding buckles to styles that have never had them before. The monopoly of the double monk strap is over, and men’s footwear is all the better for it.
