Men’s Shoes – Hobo ou Non?
GUYS – I’m reaching out to you in hopes of getting your very humble opinions (and possibly hilarious ones). Why is it that men’s footwear is recenly trending styles of the hobo kind? See above for example.
Tretorn Blue Espadrille - While boasting a comfortable look, I can’t help but presume that the person who fills these shoes is on their way to a hackey sack game. That or going to a hemp convention. But at $68.00 for an outdoor slipper, I’d say it would be a fair go.
Jeffrey Campbell Huarache – I’m pretty sure this is an adaptation of a girl’s shoe – how wrong that is I’m not sure, but I can’t foresee the near future allowing for men to wear this shoe with a straight face.
H by Hudson Ameto – Lacking shape but rich in colour clash, this shoe has me equal parts confused and mildly disoriented. $84.00 later you might feel disheartened to know that you’re not likely to get the ladies in this shoe.
Maybe this was a post to get my pent up confusion out – what do you think?

Umm… I think perhaps a small subset skinny, androgynous men can pull off these shoes… but otherwise… no.
oh gem, even then…haha :)
just say no! The Hudson Ameto pair looks like it’s made out crepe paper!
But I’m sort of in love w/the tretorn ones…just saying.
Yeah these look awful, I think the designers are trying too hard to be different. I think the next step would be ballerina shoes for men… not good.

Hello, my name is Andy and i was wondering last year Urban Outfitters carried Jeffrey Campbell Huarache shoes the brown ones and the black ones. I really wanted a pair of each but I never got a chance to buy them. It turned out it was too late and i couldnt find them anywhere after that it was like they got discontinued. but i heard it was a trial for Jeffrey to test them out on the market. My question is, i love the shoes and i really want a pair of each, are they comming out again this summer of 2010?
