Taming of the shoe
Dressing up the modern man is going beyond boundaries. Recent movements in the global menswear fashion scene has taken the classic way of dressing up out of the convention. Experimentation is gearing towards a brave and more style-high approach as fashion becomes the center of attraction of modern style reinventions. Both in the designer and retail landscape, menswear has taken a big step by putting together outfitted looks in the season’s most wanted tailored wear.
Keeping up with the times, Payless ShoeSource presents its latest collection for men with stylish statements in a range of casuals and dressy footwear. The idea is rethinking the code of dressing by mixing fashion-forward local designer pieces with a variety of on-the-radar shoes. Exciting prints, bold colors and trendy leather take to the mainstream an unexpected modern approach to menswear fashion. In-house brands such as Airwalk, Dexter and Champion are taking their stereotypical aesthetics with a stimulating twist and a refreshing manner of dressing. Though men’s shoes come with a steep price tag, Payless prides on the look for less by offering a wide range of trendy and practical footwear. Today, men who matter know it isn’t only clothes that make them men — but also their shoes.
