It’s no secret that Converse has spent the last couple of seasons elevating its footwear options. From collaborating with designers to jumping onto the sneaker-loafer trend, Converse has taken the steps to create some of the most exciting releases in recent seasons. This time, Converse is again taking on their loafers for a new launch that pays homage to their famed Chuck Taylors. In their latest loafers, Converse merges the sophistication of a timeless loafer with the style of their historic sneakers. While a more subdued version of the sneaker-loafer trend than other similar launches, this shoe is truly the best of both styles. This time, Converse is taking on the penny loafer and remixing it for another generation, while still making it the ultimate timeless shoe. 

Time to elevate your style with Converse’s loafers

In its new All-Star Coinloafer, Converse takes aspects from its famed sneaker and transforms it into the newest dress shoe your wardrobe needs. In traditional loafer style, the All-Star Coinloafer features a laceless slip-on style with a durable canvas upper. The rubber toe cap and diamond-patterned outsole add subtle pieces from the sneakers, while refined details like the penny slot elevate the look. For this release, Converse is launching the loafer in a Black/White color combination that utilizes color blocking on the tongue, as well as an all-black option. The loafer is available in select Converse retailers, while it is still awaiting an official launch on the Converse webstore. This new hybrid shoe from Converse is the perfect middle ground for any event, made with the timelessness of a loafer and the edge of a sneaker.

Outdoors, Nature, Yard

Look, I am admitting it right here. The internet is forever. So I know I can never take this back. But I am not an unbiased journalist. Sure, I try to be objective in my reporting of brands and trends. But subjectively, I have favorites. Brands that speak to me. Brands that fit me well. The ones that define my lifestyle better than any others. Now that I have that off my chest, I can objectively say that there is no better brand for your casual wardrobe than Taylor Stitch. I have always loved them more than most, but this year, the Taylor Stitch F/W collection has me asking one very important question for all of you out there:

Why the Hell are you wearing anything other than Taylor Stitch this fall?

Christopher Ward’s new release turns its sporty Loco into a dress watch
Wristwatch, Arm, Body Part

Can a watch be a dress watch if it’s got an in-your-face design element like, say, the balance wheel visibly spinning on the dial? Christopher Ward is betting yes.

The Maidenhead, England-based brand just launched their C1 Loco Classic, a dressed-up take on last year’s C12 Loco. That watch was an angular, brightly colored sports watch built around the brand’s in-house CW-003 movement.
