Ashton Everyday Sneaker

I’m on my feet at trade shows or running through terminals constantly. Usually, dress shoes are torture devices by 3 PM. These look like proper English oxfords but feel like I’m wearing my running shoes. I finally stopped keeping a spare pair of sneakers under my desk.

I’m at an age where I can’t wear high-tops to dinner, but I don’t want to wear hard-bottom shoes on a Sunday. These hit that perfect middle ground—polished enough for the country club grill, but relaxed enough for a walk. My wife says they make me look 'distinguished' rather than 'trying too hard.'

The problem with most boots is the ankle opening is too wide and my pant leg gets caught on it. These hug the ankle perfectly and slide right under slim-cut denim. Wore them to a gallery opening in Chelsea and fit right in. Zero break-in time required.

hank you for keeping the design clean. I am so tired of logos, stripes, and loud branding. I wanted shoes that speak for themselves through the quality of the leather, not a billboard on my foot. These are understated in the best possible way.

I was terrified to wear the suede in London weather, but I got caught in a drizzle and they dried without a single water spot. Whatever treatment you use is legit. They look delicate but they’re built like tanks.

I was skeptical buying footwear off an Instagram ad. But when I opened the box, the smell of the leather hit me immediately—that heavy, expensive leather smell you usually only get in high-end boutiques. Pictures didn't do the texture justice.

I need a shoe I can wear with a suit to a client meeting and then keep on with jeans for drinks after. Most shoes lean too far one way or the other. These bridge the gap perfectly. They are the most versatile item in my closet right now.

Box arrived a bit dented which had me worried, but the shoes were pristine in the dust bags. The fit is true to size—a little snug at first but they molded to my foot after two wears. Will definitely be ordering the brown pair next month.
