Shoe Style at NYMD

The best footwear from New York Men's Day Spring/Summer '17 presentations.

New York Fashion Week: Men’s kicked off yesterday with New York Men’s Day, sponsored by Cadillac. Designers premiered Spring/Summer ’17 looks that fell mostly into two camps—tropical island–inspired and minimal utilitarian. For footwear, sneakers and espadrilles won the day. Check out some of our favorites.

PLAC’s SS17 collection is inspired by the works of David Hockney with contemporary interpretations of his classic, ’60s attitude. Tough shoes by Dr. Martens featured athletic bottoms.
