Revamp your shoe collection with these top 5 additions
Words: Hugh Francis Anderson
Perfecting your shoe collection is a never ending saga. With the world of men’s footwear ever-booming, there are a seemingly endless number of new designs to tickle your fancy. As autumn is the time for an entire wardrobe upgrade, why not revamp your shoe collection too? From casual, to classic and eclectic to conservative, here are 5 of our favourites this season.
THE MONKSTRAP
The monkstrap shoe is making a marked resurgence; the merging of classic style with a modern twist makes this style beautifully different. We love these from Harrys of London.

THE TRAINER
Ok, so trainers aren’t a traditional gentleman’s item of footwear, but the popularity of them has grown exponentially. Nowadays, trainers not only make a style statement, but are ergonomic too. These suede and leather ones from Lanvin are great.
THE DERBY
We’re big fans of the derby shoe at The Gentleman’s Journal. Their classic, timeless appeal is as strong nowadays as it has always been. Merging the line between casual and formal, these ones from Crockett & Jones are perfect.
THE SLIP-ON
For a touch of footwear fun, a pair of flamboyant slip-ons is the only way forward. Worn to parties, on bright autumn days, or simply around the house, slip-ons are great. We love these ones from Duke & Dexter.
THE BIKER
And finally, for all rebels out there, nothing says masculine charm better than a pair of rugged biker boots. Even if you’re not riding a motorcycle, biker boots are sure to bring out the Dean in you, and these ones from Belstaff are great.
Attwell burnished-suede boots, £375
