NY Mag called these “the only passable Croc. The Dylan Clog is a little mature (you can't decorate it with charms).” I have a pair in black. They're comfy and simple.

One of the best Nike SB collabs ever in my opinion. Made with high quality canvas material that makes them far less rigid than normal blazers. Love the simple, refined details of this HUF design.

A minimalist do everything shoe designed in collaboration with Tom Sachs. I think it's really cool how these are designed to be worn hard and repaired more like a boot than a sneaker.

RIP Barney's. Glad I got a suit from them and some amazing CO-OP oxford shoes. This label was always so reliable for quality and fit. And the in house tailoring was so nice. Crazy to think there's not really a go-to retail location any more.
