Dress Above Your Paygrade: Sperry Top-Sider Boat Oxford Wing Tip Shoes

There are two men’s shoe style trends currentlyPenny Loafers and Oxford Wing Tip Shoes in brogue. What’s also currently trendy is that these stylish kickers tend to cost $150 and up and while the price tag is neither unexpected nor excessive, I was truly surprised when I stumbled upon these Sperry Top-Sider Boat Oxford Wing Tip Shoes whilst looking for Penny Loafer bargains online. Guess how much these beauties cost? $90.

If you’re doing a double take, I don’t blame you. I did too. Own the Original, but with a trendier spin. American Original meets Enduring Style with this urban take on Sperry’s classic silhouette. The Cloud line is for those who love Sperry’s commitment to heritage, but desire fashion forward updates. While these Top-Sider Boat Oxford Wing Tip Shoes ARE trendy, they also coincidentally (and to my money manager’s joy) classically elegant, this means that baring any irreparable scuffs, these shoes will last you close to a lifetime.

Personally, I love the leather laces and I’ve set my eye on the Oxford Wing Tips in Gray Suede because of the high contrast. Olive would be my next choice- a tad hard to match but great to show off with when matched with a Rolex Milgauss (hey, you’ve saved on shoes).

The Men’s Sperry Top-Sider Cloud Logo Boat Oxford Wing Tip in Gray Suede and Dark Brown Suede are currently unavailable. Product is expected to arrive the first week of July. Dress above your paygrade and buy these online at Sperrytopsider.com.
