Trend Report: Men’s Footwear in 2020

It's the birth of a new year. As every gentleman knows, it signals the start of something special. Here's to the art, culture and fashion that will define this new year. For the well-dressed gentleman though, it's specifically the fashion that attracts his attention. What will he wear, is the question on his mind.

Let's begin with his footwear.

Flare it up

The 70s are cool again. To relive the decade, one must bring back its most iconic outfit. It's time for the bell bottoms. Put together your 70s look with flared jeans or trousers paired with leather boots.

Get high-waisted

Why draw inspiration from the 70s alone? Let's turn back the clock further into the past. It's now the 40s and high-waisted trousers are in vogue. Pair your high-waisted trousers with a t-shirt or open shirt and your slip-on shoes.

Keep it casual

It's also the year when the gentleman truly embraces the casual look. Stepping out in over-the-knee shorts, he flaunts his faithful loafers or sneakers.

Make it two

The one-strap slider is passé. Now it's time to double the style and support with two-strap sliders. Pair them with your jeans or shorts and make a statement.

Let's get suede

Suede has always been in style but this coming year will see an upswing in its popularity. More specifically with suede chukka boots. Pair your boots with your jeans, corduroys or chinos.
