IN CONTEXT | MARK MCNAIRY TWO TONE SADDLE SHOE IN NAVY

If Menswear had its own Chinese new year style calendar (now there’s an idea…), this would most definitely be The Year of the McNairy.  After garnering notoriety as the respected lead creative director of classic American label J.Press, the past couple of years have seen Mark McNairy collaborate with some of the most prominent brands in the industry such as Engineered Garments, Bass, and Pro-Keds. Most recently he’s recently taken the helm as creative director of Woolrich Woolen Mills.

These Two-Tone saddles are hardly new – for that you should check his Kilte Loafers for Bass Weejun - but they’ve have had quite a run as one of this year’s most recognizable models. Made for his own line New Amsterdam, these suede saddles are crafted in Northamptonshire, England, using traditional American and British cobbling techniques. Typical to McNairy, the attention to detail is fastidious resulting in a top quality shoe. Plus, while they look substantial they’re surprisingly light and supple.

Despite their Internet fame, I’ve barely seen these on the street and when I have it’s been in a pretty standard fashion, (with a navy suit or rolled chino).  As it’s spring-ish now, I’ve been fixated with the idea of seeing them with shorts, (oh, c’mon live a little!), and threw together the below as a bit of insipiration in that vien. Purchase the shoe at MarkMcnairy.com (US) or End Clothing (UK) and if you’re a lady, they’re available (in store only) at Epaulet in Manhattan. – M
