THE SHOES

We're channeling high-low dressing with this footwear rotation. Timberlands and Dunks give a streetwear edge (the sneaks can be made more formal with a tailored pant, though) and loafers AKA the shoe of the moment are a typically smart style, but can be easily dressed down – try them with the white tee, neutral jacket and wide-leg pants.
