I’m in love with the shoes that F-Troupe released this season. My latest obsession from them are the new plaid chukkas.

Let’s be honest, if you’re going to Oak to buy “hiking boots” you probably aren’t going hiking in them.

M8 classic saddle shoe via Opening Ceremony; $345

Ahh yes, for the longest time the saddle shoe was the dreaded shoe for all private school and country club attending children, but alas it has made its way back into the forefront of the fashion world. I’m in love with this stylish shoe, and it goes great with no socks and a nice pair of shorts. The shoes aren’t easy to find though. That however could be good news for all you people looking to jump on a trend before it gets out of the gates. I was able to find two pairs, but struck out at a lot of the bigger fashion shopping sites. Hopefully you have better luck then I did, but I am plenty pleased with these Opening Ceremonys.

F Troupe Canvas Saddle Shoe in Beige via Revolve; $101 (multiple colorways available)

Need a cheap alternative? My best options would be thrift stores of course, or even Ebay. Expect to see more hitting shelves as the trend gets a bit bigger. I’m personally on the hunt for the classic black/navy and white ones!
