Fall Looks: The Buck Stops Here, More Bang For Your Buck, etc.




All clever titles aside...summer weather has come and gone and you're probably thinking about retiring your white bucks.  I can't say I blame you.  No matter how wonderfully scuffed they may be, Sartorially Inclined recommends they go into hibernation until S/S 2010.  While they rest comfortably in the back of your closet why not turn to a new, fall ready pair?  In keeping with the classics, snatch up a pair of bucks in a taupe, brown or another dark color as one of your go to, everyday shoes this autumn.  They fall somewhere in between your dressy, oxford lace-ups and your casual sneakers...and that's what's so great about them.  Wear them to the office, wear them on the weekend, it doesn't matter.  A beautiful pair of suede shoes can go anywhere with you.  We all know that you're going to be wearing your boots and mocs, but you should really consider giving a pair of bucks a go.  Check out some of these classic bucks for fall...

Bass Brockton...$64




Bass Buckingham...$79




L.L Bean Classic Bucks...$79




Orvis Bucks...$159




Brooks Brothers Classic Buck...$198




Inventory Mark McNairy Bucks...$350



If price was no object I would buy a pair of those Inventory Bucks quicker then you could down a mint julep and tell me bucks were only for summertime.  But, alas, that is not the case.  With a budget in mind, I actually like the cheapest of the bunch.  The Brockton by Bass has a great looking sole (both shape and color) and a really wonderful taupe colored suede.  The toe looks just modern enough, yet maintains every bit of its classic style.  For $64 they are a steal, especially for a shoe you can literally wear everyday. Buck up.
