Since winter is basically here, every guy needs a nice pair of boots. What brand comes to mind when you think of boots? Timberland’s of course. Although these boots are built for the great outdoors and rough work environments, the Timberland Guide Boots are perfect for the city. In our opinion, these are way too fresh to use for work or to walk around in the wild. The Abington Boots feature leathers from 100 year old Chicago based company Horween Leather Co. and top quality Vibram outsoles. The Guide Boot is based on vintage hunting moccasins, using rugged durable suede and equally as durable melton wool on the side panels. A solid selection and definitely our favorite out of the new Timberland collection.

Taking some styling queues from 1970’s basketball shoes, Onitsuka Tiger developed these low profile kicks. The Coolidge Lo($70) is built with brown tweed, brown leather uppers, and white leather accents. Not pictured in this photo is the bright orange hexagon styled sole. Also available in all sorts of color combinations.

Taking it back old school, Reebok is releasing its 20th anniversary Pump sneaker this year. If you don’t remember, these are the sneakers that promised you run faster and jump higher which is obviously the reason so many of us had them way back when. To mark the 20th anniversary, Reebok is releasing Limited Edition styles of its infamous Pump sneakers to select retailers world wide:

Retailers: Atmos (Tokyo), Kasina (Seoul), Juice (Hong Kong), Stolen Riches (Toronto), Espionage (Sydney), KICKS/HI (Hawaii), UNDEFEATED (L.A.), Bodega (Boston), Saint Alfred (Chicago), HUF (San Francisco), Commonwealth (Virginia), Packer Shoes (New Jersey), Size? (London), Sneakersnstuff (Stockholm), Patta (Amsterdam), Colette (Paris), Solebox (Berlin), Hanon (Scotland) and 24 Kilates (Barcelona).

With winter expected to be colder this year, why not get a pair of Wool shoes that are not only aesthetically pleasing but practical as well. Designed by Clae Shoes for their Fall ‘09 collection, the mid top set are available in navy and charcoal Wool with leather details and waxed laces. They also feature a smooth pull up leather upper with a classic cup sole. Clae brings the dressy and clean look into a comfortable “cloud-like feel of a custom molded-foot-bed that will have your feet feeling like they are flying high.”

“Have you ever had shoes without shoe strings?” Everyone needs a pair, so why not start off with these. Made of caramel suede, silver hardware, and a rubber sole, this simple formula and design, makes for a sweet pair of kicks. It doesn’t hurt that they are made in Italy by Gucci.

Billed as “the ultimate urban loafer”. These stylish slip ons have a ventilated soft leather upper, full sole design, and side elastic for a snug fit. These go well when being casual, but could easily pass at the club. Three colors to choose from: Bone($75), Brown($75), and Navy ($39).
