I’m not sure how I feel about guys wearing their limited-edition sneakers on all occasions. While I’d probably be the first girl around to high five a dude for a pair of lightening bolted, cheetah pelted high-tops, I think I represent a fair share of people when I offer the following statement for consideration: Some nights (or days) call for leather in its original state. This doesn’t necessarily mean I think you need some boring shoes, this just means there are days (and nights) when it is probably better to let your face be a stranger’s first point of focus, instead of your neon laces. Here’s help, should it be desired: PF Flyers has been making shoes for over 50 years, and the newest additions to their men’s line-up feature sneakerhead-friendly details wrapped in a slightly softer package. Embossed suedes, patterned textiles, and awesome leather treatments give these shoes the same sort of personality you find in your normal footwear, but also offer a tiny bit of (crap, can I say it?) maturity for the days when your run of 50, artist signed kicks won’t be given the respect they command. My favorites include the No. 5 Series, the Topstrap Center Lo and Center Hi (pictured), and the Perrin — but they’re all pretty delicious. Check ‘em out, then find a dealer close to home here.
