While we’ve all come to love the sleekness of the moody Dr. Martens boots, their latest collaboration has added a significant punch of color to the lineup. In collaboration with Awake NY, Dr. Martens has remixed their iconic silhouettes with a brighter hue and hairier texture. Taking on the Lowell design, these two brands have reworked the darker tones and opted for one that brings in inspiration from New York and cumbia music. Although they are a drastic change from what you usually see from the Dr. Martens brand, these collaborative shoes are the perfect blend of a timeless silhouette with a modern touch. With plenty of fun and bold details spread throughout the design, there’s no doubt that these chunky shoes will brighten up any wardrobe with style.

While it’s easy to recognize the Lowell shoe anywhere, the new bright-colored hues will make you do a double-take. Now available in green and peony navy, these new Lowell designs have also upgraded to a new textured base. Constructed with Hair-On leather and a contrasting black oiled leather branded backstrap, these collaborative shoes have plenty of spunk. Complementing the design are gold star eyelets and tonal stitching on the moc-toe vamp. Not to be forgotten is Dr. Martens’ iconic yellow welt stitch that ties it together. While the hairy and colorful uppers might not be the first choice for many, these vibrant details add plenty of style and flair to a look. When styled properly, these Lowell shoes can stun and complete any outfit. These new designs will be available beginning December 6 via Dr. Martens and Awake NY’s respective websites.

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.
