About Men's Shoes

Choosing the Right Men’s Shoe

For formal occasions, opt for structured leather shoes in black or deep brown. Brogues or Derbys pair well with suits or tailored trousers. For more casual settings, suede designs in neutral shades work neatly with chinos or selvedge denim.

Loafers and low-profile lace-ups offer everyday comfort and versatility. Leather soles provide a traditional finish, while rubber and crepe options add grip for longer days on your feet. The Wallabee and Desert Trek remain reliable choices for off-duty wear thanks to their relaxed fit and comfortable build.

Our collection balances design and practicality, offering long-lasting appeal across every style. Whether you prefer a minimal shape or a classic silhouette, you’ll find durable materials, versatile colours and well-made finishes throughout the range.

All Men's Shoes FAQs

The collection includes leather and suede shoes such as brogues, Derbys, loafers and casual lace-ups. Styles vary from formal to everyday wear, sourced from respected brands like Tricker’s, Paraboot and Clarks Originals.

Smart casual looks benefit from low-profile shoes like suede Derbys or loafers. Neutral tones such as tan, navy or chocolate pair easily with chinos, jeans or light tailoring.

Leather offers structure and polish ideal for formal wear. Suede provides a relaxed texture, better suited to casual looks. Both are durable if well cared for and can form part of a varied shoe rotation.

Suede shoes require a soft-bristle brush to lift dirt and maintain nap. A water-repellent spray helps protect the surface, and they should be stored away from moisture and direct heat to preserve shape and colour.

Brands like Tricker’s, Paraboot, Clarks Originals and G.H. Bass are known for durable materials and time-tested designs. They focus on traditional construction, long-lasting soles and comfortable fits suitable for regular wear.
