When I set my mind to tracking down summer style essentials, I tend to look for the unexpected. That holds true especially in the men's footwear department: While a great pair of stylish canvas sneakers is a true essential, it pays off to have a few additional arrows in the quiver, so to speak, like a pair of the best boots for men. And in my experience, if you can find those boots from one of your favorite designers, that's all the better -- try my friends at Billy Reid, for instance.
Yes, even in the heat of summer, rugged-yet-lightweight leather boots can more than pass muster, whether paired up with your favorite set of lightweight stretch chinos or some classic light wash jeans. And for both of those wearing occasions, and then some, you deserve to step into the best: Take the newly restocked, utterly classic Billy Reid Indianola Chukka Boots.
They were introduced by the award-winning Southern menswear designer last year, and they're back in a big way -- although sizes are going quickly, they're a handsome addition to any wardrobe that bridges the gap between rugged and refined.
In fact, my Billy Reid reviews have covered these stylish men's chukka boots in the past, and they're here just in time to shake things up with, say, a khaki summer suit or some fresh linen trousers.
As with other Billy Reid menswear selections, from linen shirting to the peacoat worn by James Bond, proper specs and craftsmanship make all the difference. Built on a streamlined Italian last from light brown Kudu leather and made to develop a handsome patina over time, the Billy Reid Indianola Chukka Boots bring back an archival style that was a favorite of the designer decades ago.
Details like a burnished toe cap and subtle waxed laces elevate these versatile, of-the-moment chukka boots even further -- keep on dreaming up ways to wear the Billy Reid Indianola Chukka Boots, because they'll prove worthy of every penny in terms of an investment.
