Like much of todays summer style for gentlemen, it originated from one of these three rebellious fashions which were originally a mode of sticking it to the man. The preppies love their boat shoes, the Ivy League style took on the loafer, and so for the more traditional gents attending university whose fathers wouldnt dare let them step foot outside the house in boat shoes, the white buck was adopted as the shoe of choice
Its also a more non-committal way to rock this look because its not like youre really wearing the sweater, so you can stay cool if its warmer out or show off more of your summer dresses if you want to
This dress code allows for greater flexibility than formal wear, encouraging the mixing of separates and the use of diverse footwear options like loafers, brogues, or Chelsea boots
Either way, its dominating both my closet and my online shopping carts (hello Net-a-Porter!) as I prep for the season ahead
