Loafers v. Cool Kicks

Gucci Loafers
Gucci Black Pebble Leather Horsebit Loafers


Christian Louboutin


Retro Jordans


Nike Terminator High Supreme sneakers ($220)


It's a classic coming of age debate... how to decide between the loafers or the cool kicks (Jordan's, Common Projects, Dunks, Vans, etc. found at stores such as Chicago's Succezz). I know it can be difficult for the early to mid-20's guy, so tread carefully.

I tend to choose the loafers 9/10 times. I really am a fiend for the Purple Label Ralph Lauren's or anything from the Gucci collection - partnered perfectly with a Dynastee tee. Here are some pics to help you begin making the transition to adulthood.
