While I’ve seen plenty of appealing iterations over the years, they’ve never quite surpassed the timeless beauty of a Church’s shoe. I have always felt like menswear can often, by default, feel more premium because it focuses on simple silhouettes and classic fits, and I believe this is what has drawn me back to Church’s time and time again: a sort of unfussy, straight-forward chicness. While the odd deviation comes in the form of the brand’s studded styles, such as the Pembrey loafer, it remains one of my favourite iterations on-site right now. Yes, it has that additional detailing, but it’s not at the cost of versatility.
