The Pick: the only summer shoe you need

Joseph as a brand may not be one of the first things to spring to mind when you think of menswear, the brand originally started as a small shop attached to a hairdressing salon on the Kings road, often working as a champion of the latest up and coming designers before finally beginning their own brand of simple stylish clothing.

Their menswear selection has been expanding dramatically over recent years even finally opening their first stand – alone menswear store at No.2 Savile Row in London in February this year and these might just become the most versatile shoe in your wardrobe this summer.

The classically designed loafers are made from smooth, soft nappa leather and are perfect as evening shoe for a laid back summer look, worn without socks of course. The deep burgundy beetroot colour will work well with a multitude of different outfits. The flexible leather these are made of means they can be worn with the backs flattened in more of a slipper style which makes them perfect for day time wear as well, whether you’re strolling through a picturesque square or just wanting to remain sartorially on point while lounging by the pool.
