It’s hard to deny the fact that the Chuck Taylor All-Star has been one of the most popular lifestyle shoes ever since its release in 1917. However, when it comes to functionality and durability, the canvas material falls short of protection against harsh weather conditions.

Although we’ve recommended snagging a pair of rubber shoes the new Converse waterproof Nubuck boots are a fashionable alternative that feature water-resistant Nubuck leather, insanely comfortable inner booties, and a rugged, vulcanized rubber outsole.

The Chuck Taylor All-Star saw a winterized transformation in 2016, but this year’s revamped Nubuck creations are stupidly stylish, boasting four infatuating fall colorways. If you’re looking to add some flare to your fall wardrobe, one of our favorites in the collection is drenched in a stunning autumnal hue of dark red. This color is not only pleasing to the eye, it matches well with other earth-toned colors.

The all-black silhouette is an easy grab to complement anything in your wardrobe, especially with your daily get-ups to the office. Besides, all-black always looks steezy in cold weather.

Then we have a gray and a tan pair with white rubber soles to round the collection out with some two-toned, trendy tenacity. The two colors really radiate the traditional Converse All-Star look, even down to an unmistakable, branded ankle patch.

Converse Nubuck boots are available now for $120. Peep the other weather-resistant pieces in the Counter Climate collection while you’re there.

Veja introduces all new V-90, a throwback Veja sneaker with a familiar aesthetic
Veja brings modern sustainability to '90s-era aesthetics, and we love it
V-90 sneakers on marble floor

In the ever-evolving landscape of men's luxury footwear, Veja has introduced their latest creation: the V-90 sneaker. This elegant amalgamation of throwback aesthetics and modern comfort is a unisex sneaker that caters to those who seek a harmonious blend of fashion, sustainability, and innovation.

Inspired by the design ethos of the '90s, the V-90 pays homage to an era marked by bold styles and expressive individuality. This throwback aesthetic, carefully interwoven with modern flair, makes the V-90 a versatile choice that seamlessly transitions from casual outings to more upscale settings.
Sourcing excellence and organic traced leather
At the heart of the V-90's allure is its commitment to ethical sourcing and the use of premium materials. Veja's approach to leather sourcing is exemplified by the inclusion of O.T. leather (Organic Traced leather) in the V-90 sneaker. Sourced exclusively from 100% certified organic farms in Uruguay, not only is it free from the harmful effects of pesticides and chemicals, but it also emerges as a testament to Veja's dedication to a greener and cleaner fashion industry.  O.T. leather goes through a mechanical beating process that makes it bendable. (The leather in the V-90 sneaker was also tanned in Brazil, and uses fewer dyes than conventional leather.)

Men's Chelsea boots are versatile and necessary, and these are the ones that will work with everything you already have in your collection, simply taking the place of some of your favorite shoes and extending the life of each.

A brief history of Chelsea boots
Chelsea boots get their name from the fashionable Chelsea district of London. Chelsea was the epicenter of fashion and music during the 1960s. It was here that fashion designers resurrected a style of ankle boot first worn by Queen Victoria in the 1840s. Shoemaker Joseph Sparks Hall adapted a traditional English riding boot for everyday use by the Queen. To make them more comfortable, he lowered the shaft to ankle height, and to make them easier to get on and off, he added elastic gussets on each side. The style became popular during the late 1800s but disappeared during WWI.
