The New Shoes on Our Radar

When’s the last time you bought yourself some shoes? Let this be your sign that it’s time. There are so many great styles dropping these days, we thought we would pull a few of our current favorites to showcase. From a pair of low-profile sneakers and a modern take on a trail runner to an American-made boat shoe collaboration that’s as stylish as it is comfortable, these are the kicks our team can’t stop talking about.

Our Picks

Super Low Pro Sneaker

Low profile, but high rotation. Vans digs into its archive and pulls out a slim, stripped-down silhouette from the ‘80s that feels right for now. The Super Low Pro sits close to the ground, keeps branding minimal, and leans into that easy, throw-on appeal. It’s the red sneaker you wear when you want to make a statement without anything too loud. It’s clean, simple and quietly cool.

$85 by Vans

 

Ora Primo EXT Slide

We don’t think it’s possible for a slide to get any more rugged. Or comfortable for that matter. Built with an elevated suede upper and a plush neoprene collar, this mule provides a high-end feel while maintaining the signature HOKA cushioning. Whether you're cooling down after a long trail session or navigating the city, its bold, oversized silhouette delivers a sophisticated streetwear edge without ever sacrificing support.

SeaVees x Quoddy Landing Boat Shoe

SeaVees teamed with Quoddy on a limited-run boat shoe rooted in American craftsmanship. Made in Maine from Horween leather with hand-stitched true moccasin construction and a Vibram sole, it’s a West Coast take on a classic slip-on. Heritage-driven, but built for now and limited to only 300 pairs. You won’t want to miss out on these.

$350 at SeaVees
