CHRIS LIVE AKA SHAKER SAYS: As I have alluded to in previous posts, I have what might best be described as a relatively "Laissez-faire" attitude towards my Summer wardrobe. Unless Y.O.U. one is so inclined as to carefully organize and employ a colorful rotation of seersucker (NOTE: When worn too much, please place the emphasis on the "sucker" ... lol) suits, there are few imaginative Summer clothing options for the fly gentlemen. This is where a good shoe game comes into play.

Where the Winter months provide us with ample opportunities to showcase complex nuances of expression through layers of sweaters and overcoats, the casual Summer selection often gets whittled down to t-shirts, shorts and kicks. That being the case, in the bright light of day, sneakers often take the marquee and become the unchallenged star of the outfit show!

This season is sure to see a water main break-like flood of fresh footwear offerings and 1 of my early favorites are the Saks Fifth Avenue exclusive Converse® by John Varvatos Chuck Taylor Studded Flag High-Top Sneakers.

These $100 limited edition black-on-black American Flag inspired reimagined Chuck Taylors are constructed of pyramid-stud "stars" and twill/metallic stitched "stripes". Contemporary menswear impresario John Varvatos delivers once again. Militantly cool.
