There's some great men's Spring and Summer shoes out there this season, including loafers, boat shoes, sneakers, sandals and dress shoes. To learn more about the hottest trends in men's footwear and how to wear the latest styles, be sure to check out these top picks in Men's shoes for Spring and Summer 2009.
Casual, but not sloppy, these stylish slip-ons come in three great shades for Spring and Summer: dark brown, light brown, and bone. All three have rubber outsoles with espadrille-style accents, and they all feature double goring, so they're easy to slip off and on. Any of the three shades would be ideal with jeans, shorts or casual pants.
These simple loafers are simply perfect for Spring and Summer -- especially in the shades of winter white and tan. Easy to pair with anything that's not too dressy or formal, these shoes also come in black or brown.
If you're looking for a pair of casual shoes that will see you through Spring, as well as the rest of the year, you won't find many styles more versatile than these slip-ons from Clarks. Available in brown leather and tan leather, these laid-back shoes also come in brown nubuck, which has become totally acceptable for warmer weather too.
Offering a twist on conventional boat shoes, these casual slip-ons feature a laceless style and uppers made of washed suede or distressed leather, so they have that "lived in" look right out of the box. I'm crazy over the red suede version, but the sandstone suede and lead leather versions are far more subtle and perfectly suited to warm weather. Also offered in brown or black, any of them would be great with shorts, jeans or khakis.
Of course, just because the weather is warm doesn't mean you're only going to be wearing light colored suits and dress pants. But, it's nice to have the shoes for if and when you do. These fantastic bicycle-toed slip-ons look great in off white, which would work well with lighter colors. But these shoes also look awesome in brown and black, so even if you never plan on wearing lighter colors, you're still in luck.
