Jack Spade Debuts Their First Watch Collection

By Cator Sparks Published December 21, 2019

Jack Spade seems to have taken some growing pills lately because we can’t stop hearing about the brand. Well done guys! Recently, they launched their first watch collection that is lookin’ mighty fine.

What we love about this company is their wide range of influences from sports, art and architecture. Taking this into consideration the roll out comprises 37 models in five categories including a Swatch-esque graphic series (we are fans of the repp stripe), Dual Time Zone, Sport, Pillow Tank and Dress referencing trends from the 60s to the 80s.

We love that the Dual Time Zone range features a movement developed just for Jack Spade that can tell an alternative time zone with its fourth sweep hand. The Sport, Dress and Pillow Tank include Swiss movements and a sapphire crystal. Alternatively the Graphic group has Japanese quartz movements and amusingly announces on the dial that it has no jewels nor is it Swiss made.

The collection has a wide price range from $98-$500. Take a gander and see what strikes your fancy.

Converse joins the sneaker-loafer trend with a sophisticated design

Converse releases new sneaker-loafer

As divisive as the style might be, it seems as if every brand wants to participate in the sneaker-loafer trend. After brands like New Balance and HOKA have explored the interesting silhouette, Converse is ready to dive in. While some despise the look and others find it innovative, the newest Converse hybrid is unlike those previously mentioned. Donning a more casual yet sleek look, the latest model from the Nike-owned brand is a much more refined design. Unlike other sneaker-hybrid loafers that tend to appear more athletic, the Converse design is more equipped for everyday use. With a lower profile than others in the market, the Converse sneaker loafer is a perfect option for those still on the fence about the design.

The new shoe, created with a traditional loafer silhouette and pops of Converse’s All-Star sneaker sprinkled throughout, is a low-key design with flair. Composed of leather paneling, the minimalist material is smooth and luxe all around. Added features like a tasseled midfoot strap with embossed stars at the tip and an embossed logo at the heel give the design a subtle look that doesn’t lean toward an athletic aesthetic. Bringing in the sneaker concept is the brand’s traditional Converse sole, which you can find throughout all of the brand’s footwear options. Available in either black or off-white, this hybrid is one of the most refined options of the trend yet. While there’s no doubt that this sneaker-loafer design will have plenty of fans, it has yet to see a release in the United States. Although only available in Japan, there’s no doubt the brand will soon announce a global release for this trendy sneaker.
