I don’t think there’s a group of people who are better suited to discuss comfortable dress shoes. These guys are standing all day and opening doors at some of the fanciest hotels in New York. The shoes they choose will most certainly be solid. Comfort, durability, and support will be priorities. No high-end Italian loafers for these fellas. They’ve got to look put together, but be ready to stand, comfortably, for an eight hour stretch.
So what brands do they choose? Emma Leighton from Footwear News asked eight different doormen and the brands they picked all say the same thing to me: Thick and sturdy.
Here’s where to buy em:
Ecco Shoes | Red Wing Shoe Company | Rockport | Dr. Martens | Clarks
Plus a restock (no sale) of a favorite USA assembled dive watch.
It's nice when a brand warns their customers in advance of raising their prices.
Spring ready sneakers, grooming goods, watches, etc. Saddle up. Amazon's spring sale is on.
New sportcoats. Italian desert boots. J. Crew dips their promo-toes into spring.
From de-scaling irons to shining shoes to smelling coat pits. Let's clean up our act.
New Seikos are on sale, and J. Crew's Suit event is expiring soon.
