Branding Aside, There's Nothing Generic About These

The leather chukka is something we endorse as a men’s footwear staple. Problem is, once the thermometer starts to peak, having your foot encased in solid leather can lead uncomfortable sweating and we all know where that leads to. That’s why these Generic Surplus army green perforated leather chukka’s ($85) caught our eye during the latest shoe-finding expedition. The olive-green army hued leather provides a rugged, if not outdoorsy feel, while the hemp espadrille inspired detailing on the sole hints that summer activities are still in the cards. The special perforated leather exterior and woven cotton lining also ensures they’ll also breathe better on hot summer days.
