Beckett Simonon Caine Oxford

I get it men.  You're annoyed at fashion's cruel joke.  First they draw you in by making you more vain (not a bad thing) but then they sucker punch you by making those fantasies of your vanities outside your price range oftentimes.  Well I say retain the style and keep some bucks in the bank without giving up on quality.  Beckett Simonon has done just that for you by taking one of the season's handsome modern dandy-esque shoes and making them affordable and attractive.  Their Caine Oxford is a Goodyear™ Welted, leather-lined and tasseled slip-on that you can pair with your spring remixed three-piece suits to your sweaters n denim.  Head on over to BeckettSimonon now for a special spring pre-order discount.

Castañer Pablo Suede Espadrilles

I'm on a hunt for a really flattering espadrille this season.  Castañer's Pablo Suede Espadrille seems like a good one to examine.  Made of soft supple suede in a beautiful almost Yves Klein Blue, this company's long history of making espadrilles is something to honor.  Hand-stitched with the classic jute sole this is a great shoe to consider for your espadrille fix this spring.  What I look for is comfort and a good fit and rigidity over the toes and I think the suede in this model attains that.  Available now at Mr.Porter.com.

Camper R. Kremer Shoe

I love brutalism.  I find beauty in the harsh larger than life shapes and the cold and natural permanence of the materials and objects.  This Camper by R. Kremer shoe reminds me of a brutalist aesthetic.  Strong, balanced and well-built with organic color like the tan toe box and simple materials like leather and suede, this shoe is a mixing of elements that say strength.  The clean execution can go with a bevy of things in your spring wardrobe and mesh nicely with the revamped minimal and even new Goth movements in menswear.  Available now at Camper.com.
