Espadrilles, perfect for a chic-casual look in the city
Gentlemen, for a classic city look, wear your city espadrilles with casual chinos or jeans, and a linen shirt that you can let out of the pants. Choose simple, neutral colors to stay traditional and add a touch of elegance.
For a more dressy and chic outfit, pair your shoes with summery fabric pants with a hem and pleating at the waist. Add a matching polo shirt, and you're ready for a sophisticated, modern look. Two colors that go well together are gray and white, which are a safe bet, or if you want a more summery touch, lean towards a light blue and white.
If you want to go even more chic, choose beige pants and a loose casual white shirt to keep that urban look while still being refined. For a man, wearing a chic backpack or a large leather bag worn over the shoulder as an accessory will add a touch of style while being practical.
