For over 90 years, Tod’s shoes have embodied la dolce vita. The Italian company built its reputation on colorful, sleek driving shoes and has since branched out into other footwear and clothing. Tod’s new capsule collection with Mr Porter is the sartorial manifestation of the good life, with printed shirts and swim trunks that look ready for a getaway to the Amalfi Coast. New versions of Tod’s classic Gommino driving shoes appear as well, alongside several new loafer and chukka boot offerings that are simple yet luxurious. For the modern gentleman enamored with Italian style, it doesn’t get much better than this.
