These boots make me want to go to the desert so I don’t feel like a poser. The grey suede, stitching and just overall look from these Costume National Homme Desert Boots look at home on the LA beach ‘desert’ if you know what I mean. The Italian made desert boots are equipped with a traction rubber sole and a 1.25″ heel. Oh, and you gotta love the heel loop- style elements to boot!

The contrasting stitching and wonderfully slim leather card holder is the perfect man-cessory. Made in Italy from famed designer Tod’s (they also make great driving shoes), their Leather Classic Card Case looks great in black or brown. It holds just enough cash (3 bills is all you need, a $20, a $5 and a $1; or two Benjamins and a Grant if you want to roll a little deeper), two credit cards, an ATM card and your ID. It’s Bellissimo! $95 from Barney’s New York
Is it really the best of both worlds? I have always been a fan of cap-toes, and perforated dress shoes are making quite the statement today- so what of the combination? I personally am a fan. They also exue all the other great traits of a well made shoe: Handmade, Italian leather, leather soles and heel, and the detailed stitching and design. Mmmm tasty brown leather shoes. $355 from Generic Man Available from Gilt [ad name=”go-STIL-smbanner”]
