StyleCard: Kalnins More for Men


Take two for Kalnins Footwear for men, stepping away from sneakers for some laced up classics and amazing leather textures. Maris Kanto has created quite a few great looking styles for men and women, the Milestone and Florenza live up to that standard easily.


The versatility of these shoes starts with the ability to change color to any of the eleven shades included, additional customization in the form of fitting, glow, and shine, extend the life of this footwear from dressed up casual to more formal dressing. The Milestone shoes feature a richly textured leather and suede combination, with a metal loop at the bottom of the laces that can be changed between silver, gold and black. The Florenza is reminiscent of finely tooled Italian leather, with built in shine, another great pair.

For these and more great looks from Kalnins, head over to the main store.

This is part one of two posts on some great men's footwear from Kalnins. Maris Kanto sent an assortment of styles over to help balance out the male/female ratio on 'On Your Toes'. Once again Dave Casanova 'steps' in to help out in showing off the goods. Thanks Mister!


Taking a closer look at the sneaker styles from Kalnins, both the Dinamika and the Braxterz come equipped with multiple color options. Besides the eleven preset color combinations, that come with every pair, are additional customization tools that allow you to select and color different parts of the shoe, making these a very versatile option for men that prefer to rely on only one or two pairs of shoes in their inventory.The footwear comes with multiple other options to control size, shine, and glow aspects.

StyleCard: JCS... For The Boys

I have always tried to share a wide range of footwear on the blog, different styles, creators and collaborations, but what tends to be missing is shoes for the male avatar. They are out there, and some of them are really well made, but it's a bit hard to blog men's footwear when you are definitely not a male. Eponymous Trenchmouth of Jeepers Creepers Shoes (JCS) inquired if I would be able to review his latest releases, and I was happy to oblige, with the help of a very accommodating Dave Casanova... thank you, Dave!


These 2 new styles are great Casual shoes, the Miami Shoes and the Kix Shoes are a lace up style with a hint of an oxford feel and some athletic shoe inspired stripe detail. On the Miami the tan leather contrasts with the softly colored canvas that comes in soft 'Miami Vice' pastels; Peach, Blue, Cream and Sage.Golden grommets and white laces complete the style. The Kix Shoes feature richer tone-on-tone styling in shades of Green, Red, Black and Blue with color matched laces and soles.

Both of these styles can be found at JCS Shoes Main Store.

Time to welcome a new face to 'On Your Toes'. Volcom Praga, KMADD Stylist, will be appearing from time to time to help us cover what's new and fashionable in men's footwear for our little blog. No time like the present, and SOREAL's much awaited follow up to the City Steps was a perfect opportunity to get this guy to show off some amazing footwear. The new Superstars are a great classic 3 stripe sneaker, with hyper realistic details from perforations to worn leather effects, and front to back perfect styling. (click image to enlarge.)

Volcom's casual look consists of some Aitui pants, a fun 'Rock is Dead' Tee from Gutta, Kari's Crate Digger shoulder bag and oversized sunglasses from VintageWear (VG Republic). Some great tattoos and new hair from MUISM help add up to a great look.

Look for the Superstars at SOREAL.
