Men's

LOAKE 1880 Aldwych - decent oxfords at a reasonable price

Oxfords - the most official type of men's shoes that you can imagine. They are worn exclusively "on the occasion" and carefully choosing a wardrobe. They are out of time and fashion, do not allow design changes, and therefore, the main thing in them is quality and comfort. Such shoes are made by the English brand Loake Bros.

Pros:

• 5 classic colors to choose from - traditional black, plus a few shades of brown;
• Good calf leather, polished to a shine;
• Stacked leather outsole with rubber heel protection;
• Two pairs of spare shoelaces and bags for storing shoes in the kit;
• A reasonable price of 20-22 thousand rubles - after all, these shoes will have to be worn infrequently, and it is a pity to spend too much on them.

Minuses:

• Both the top and the sole require regular care and prevention.

SUTOR MANTELLASSI Oliver - single cut shoes for the celebration

Another kind of "strict" shoes - houlkats. In fact, these are the same oxfords, but from a single piece of leather, which allows us to evaluate the skill of the Sutor workers and significantly increases the cost of shoes.

Oliver - perfect shoes for evening dress. In addition, the Italians offer a fairly rich selection of colors - from classic to non-standard (for example, blue or burgundy).

Pros:

• Skillfully dressed calfskin goes to the upper part, lining and insole;
• Tailoring with a welt - such shoes last longer, do not leak and are easy to repair;
• Leather sole;
• Manual assembly and polishing;
• A soft bag for storing shoes is included.

Minuses:

• The price is about 70 thousand rubles.

VITTORIO SPERNANZONI London - the most durable brogues

Pros:

• The soft top which is not squeezing and not rubbing a foot;
• Fully made of genuine leather, including lining and insole;
• Stitched polymer sole with a corrugated surface and a reinforced toe part;
• Excellent "margin of safety";
• Fully manual painting, assembly and polishing of leather parts;
• The ability to order pair tailoring individually with the manufacture of pads on the leg.

• Unlike classic models that are resistant to the appearance of wrinkles and creases, soft “sports” brogues of this quality are deprived.

BARRETT 162U - spectacular monks

The Italian company has long been pleased with its fans with two-color monks, but by the beginning of this year it released one of its best models, coinciding with its release to its own anniversary.

For iconic shoes, the company chose black and the color of dark chocolate, and did not regret the best technologies, making them truly unique. A leather fringe was added to the wide belt on two belts, although this decor may seem excessive to someone.

Pros:

• The double sole made of leather with a rubber layer is light and durable;
• The shoes are very soft and fit comfortably;
• Leather insoles;
• Contrast lining, which makes shoes look particularly cool;
• Made by hand.
