Yesterday's Gaziano & Girling shoe delivery included these elastic sided slip-ons in polo suede. The design is a collaboration between G&G and A Suitable Wardrobe.
The elastic sided shoe is probably the most suitable slip-on style for wear with a suit. They look like oxfords but slide on and off, which is a considerable boon to the airport security process. And I think the shoe's elegant waist and soft square toe add up to the best machine-made shoe shape available today (click on the photo to enlarge it). But then I admit I am prejudiced.
Available by special order (allow five months) in any G&G skin. Email me for pricing information.

Lovely shoes, Will. Would zip up dress boots have a similar effect with dress pants/suits?
Please flip over your new G&Gs and show us their bevelled waists.
Pavo, whether a zip is as easy to get in and out of as a slipon will depend on the design of the specific zip in question.
Where there's a Will, there's a way. Those are the first elastic-sided slip-ons that I like. Very nice.
Can I ask why you have chosen elastic sided and not a loafer style slip on?
