Anyone that regularly walks the streets of New York knows that it takes a special pair of shoes to get around without wanting to kill someone. When you’re required to wear something more formal for work, walking around in dress shoes can be the worst part of a commute. Designed with those mean streets in mind, the Cole Haan LunarGrand Wingtip offers the comfort and flexibility of a light-weight sneaker while maintaining a classic silhouette so you don’t have to walk into the office wearing sneakers with slacks.
As the name suggests, Cole Haan borrows Nike’s Lunarlon Technology for traction and comfort walking the streets. It may seem odd to combine the technology normally associated with Nike sneakers on a pair of dress shoes, but once you experience the supreme comfort it offers you will be a changed man. Also, the Lunarlon sole that comes in a variety of colors can add a touch of visual interest to what would just be a pair of traditional wingtip oxfords without them.
