Sandy Suede Kicks

Nothing personifies the refined yet relaxed style of the season quite like a pair of suede wing tips. Relaxed yet sophisticated, they cover all bases and can get you in just about anywhere—whether you're wearing a cotton suit, grey chinos or some rumpled cut-off shorts. In sandy shades that range from caramel to taupe, they look particularly sharp with both white and blue denim. The real question is whether you want some rubber red brick soles (definitely a bit easier to kick around in) or some grown-up leather soles. In either case, you'll be set until fall rolls around.
