Oliver Cabell El Clásico
Designed in homage to the rivalry between powerhouse football teams Real Madrid and FC Barcelona, the Clásico from Oliver Cabell is a sporty option perfect for spring. Subtly accented with red and navy, the mostly white shoe is a chameleon accessory that could look great dressed up with cuffed chinos or dressed down with lightweight shorts.
Seavees Army Issue Sneaker
Featuring a classic springtime silhouette, these low cut kicks from Seavees make a fantastic casual pick for the season. Built with a velvety smooth suede exterior and durable rubber sole, these shoes are as stylish as they are functional. Pair with a crisp linen top and jeans for a spring look that’s as breezy as you are.
Sperry Striper II Salt Washed CVO Sneaker
Sperry is well-known for its lightweight and breathable footwear, and its latest offering doesn’t disappoint! Though the Striper sneaker is an old standby for the brand, it’s gotten a facelift with a new salt-washed exterior that makes for a laidback and beachy look. Add to this a flexible construction and extra cozy footbed and you’ve got yourself a real winner for spring.
Clae Bradley Knit Sneakers
For those fellas who like a pair of knit sneakers, there’s no better choice for the new season than these beauts from Clae. Breathable, comfortable, and sleek, these kicks are sure to add a fashion-forward finish to any warm-weather ensemble, though we think they’d look especially good with a crisp polo shirt and khaki shorts.
Swims Breeze Tennis Knit
Built with Swims’ signature Breeze technology, these knit tennis shoes are an uber-functional pick for the guy on the go. Available in a wide array of different colors, these sneakers are bound to become you’re new favorite go-to, whether you’re running errands around town or running to grab a drink with your best friends.
Feit Direct Hand Sewn Latex Low Sneakers
Yes, these sneakers are ridiculously expensive and probably shouldn’t be included on this round-up, but they are just so cool. Inspired by basketball shoes of the 1960s, these all-natural latex kicks feature a low cut and a tight cross-section of laces. The effect is something that’s both a throwback and a throwforward, so could be clutch for the guy with vintage tastes.
You know what goes great with these cool spring sneaks? A few of the best men’s spring dress shirts. Pair any of the above with any of these shirts and you’re sure to impress on that first outdoor brunch of the year.
