One of my favorite styles, a hand-sewn timeless classic that will last you a lifetime. Chromexcel leather will patina beautifully with age and is naturally water-resistant. The traditional moccasin construction lends itself to being repaired multiple times over the life of the shoe. The leather is wrapped around the entire shoe last so that you are standing on not just the insole, but also another piece of leather and then the outsole.

      Oiled Leather

      Oiled leather is basically just leather that has been given an intensely nourishing treatment. After the treatment, the leather can contain as much as 15% of its weight in oil. This treatment makes oiled leather one of the strongest types of leather around. That’s why it can be seen used for some heavy-duty situations like motorcycle boots. 


      This leather stands out for its water resistance, ease of upkeep, soft feel, hand-rubbed evenly stained color, superior comfort, and durability.

      Oiled leather is particularly famous particularly because of its patina. The patina is a unique process, as the leather ages, that builds character. The patina is a culmination of the wear, including scuffs and wear, and the care (oils, creams, etc) that you have given it over time.

      Silver AG.2

      Silver AG.2 Up Close on Black Nylon Fabric and White/Silver Lighting Pattern

      Silver AG.2 uses the power of silver for its long-lasting antimicrobial properties. Silver-infused fabrics have been strongly received by manufacturers in diverse industries such as sportswear, orthotics, and prosthetics where it is loved for its enduring ability to reduce odors and keep products fresh. Silver AG.2 is a  Kicks For Gents® exclusive

      SILVER AG2.0 Insole shot of the lighting pattern

      Silver AG.2 contains ultra-fine silver crystals that release silver ions at a controlled rate, but only when bacteria are present.
      Silver AG.2 is treated with an aqueous-based antibacterial textile treatment designed to inhibit the growth of odor-causing bacteria. 

      Antimicrobial Efficacy

      To assess the antimicrobial performance, samples treated with Silver AG.2 are tested using a quantitative bacterial test procedure.

      These slip-resistant, non-marking soles are light and durable while providing excellent traction on damp, smooth surfaces and do not require any break-in period or maintenance of any kind. 

      Repairable Construction

      McKay Repairable construction method

      Known by many names, the McKay aka Blake Stitch method is a stitch down construction where the sole stitching appears on the foot side of the insole and on the outsole bottom. This method wraps the upper leather underneath the foot for more comfort and flexibility. The seam may sometimes be hidden in a groove on the sole’s bottom to minimize
      any abrasion from the stitching.

      Eco Shipping Initiatives

      We Ship with Planet

      More than just carbon neutral shipping

      How it works?

      At Kicks For Gents, we actively offset carbon emissions caused by shipping our products with the help of Planet.

      Planet helps us to calculate the cost to neutralize our emissions and donates the Shopify Sustainability Fund.

      The Shopify Sustainability Fund

      Through this initiative, our contributions are currently funding entrepreneurs whose businesses support our planet by developing technologies that actively remove carbon from the atmosphere!

      Learn more about the Shopify Sustainability Fund 

      Reduce, remove, reverse

      There’s no easy fix for climate change, and no solution that will singlehandedly solve the problem. We have to try every possible option, from those that leverage natural processes to new technologies that lock carbon away forever.

      We need existing solutions that can make a difference now, and emerging technologies that could have a huge impact in the future.

      Shopify’s Sustainability Fund pays the early-adopter premium for carbon removal, funding pilot projects and generating demand to kickstart the market and drive down future prices.

      What are carbon offsets?

      A carbon offset reduces the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere so that increased greenhouse gases elsewhere have a net impact of 0. For example, suppose a truck releases 150 g of CO2 in one mile, and actions to preserve a forest remove 150 g of CO2 from the atmosphere. If you purchase one carbon offset that supports forest preservation for each mile that a truck travels, then the levels of CO2 in the atmosphere remain the same. CO2 accounts for 95% of the climate impact from burning fossil fuels for transportation.

      Shoe Size Guide

       
      White ruler without numbers

      Fit and sizing is one of those things where we all have a personal preference, some like their shoes tight while others don’t like their feet to be choked.

      After years of speaking with customers, we have found some useful sizing guidelines which we hope will help nearly everyone find the perfect fit.  

      SIZING RECOMMENDATIONS

      When shopping on our website, you will always find a sizing recommendation in the description. 

      TRUE TO SIZE

      Order your size as measured on The Brannock Device (see below).
      This means most will find a perfect fit with their size as measured on The Brannock Device. When new, our True-to-Size footwear should fit slightly snug, but will break-in after a few wears. 

      HALF SIZE DOWN

      Order ½ size smaller than your size as measured on The Brannock Device.
      Footwear that will fit best when sized ½ size smaller than your size as measured on The Brannock Device. Half-Down footwear should fit snugly when new, but will stretch and conform to your foot with wear. 

      FULL SIZE DOWN

      Order 1 full size smaller than your size as measured on The Brannock Device.

      It’s critical that some slip-on loafers fit extremely snug when new, since there are no laces to further secure them once the leather stretches—and it will stretch considerably. This is why we strongly recommend you order 1 full size smaller than your size as measured on The Brannock Device. This is especially true for those who wear loafers with thin or no socks.

      The Brannock Device®

      All of our sizing references using The Brannock Device. 

      Designed in 1927, The Brannock Device is a standardized way of measuring your shoe size and once you know your Brannock Size, ordering shoes online will be much easier than trying to compare brands for sizing. We strongly recommend getting sized on The Brannock Device when determining your true size. Nearly every reputable shoe shop, and many cobblers, will have The Brannock Device on-hand if you’d like to get measured. Some customers have inquired about buying The Brannock Device online, but it really is best to be measured by someone familiar with its proper operation.

      SHOE LAST

      The type of  last used determines the aesthetic and ultimately the fit of a particular style. 

      We use a variety of lasts for different styles of shoes, including those we developed specifically for our collection and a few time-honored American classics.

      About KFG

      Hi, i'm Zaman!

      Founder of Kicks for Gents holding Best Hombre Fashion Pocket Square Holder
      I started Kicks For Gents back in 2017 to fix a problem I was having.

      The Problem

      You see, after years of wearing sneakers, I found myself in an office wearing hard leather shoes, loafers, and boots. If you haven't tried it already, putting insoles into leather shoes just doesn't work. They won't fit. The real estate inside of a leather shoe is more valuable than in Manhattan or Los Angeles. Unfortunately, orthopedic shoes that allow for larger insoles can be very expensive, disposable, and look a little funny. 

      In the pursuit to find a pair of comfortable leather shoes, I was not willing to give up style for comfort. The more I searched, the more money I spent on what were either shoes that were comfortable but frumpy or gorgeous but hard. Traditional store-bought insoles were too big for almost all of the shoes and they just don't fit in leather shoes.

      The Solution

      Kicks For Gents® shoes are made on special lasts designed to be able to accommodate quality insoles without looking like traditional orthopedic shoes. We accomplish this by leveraging the insights and experience of an amazing team of Pedorthists, Orthotists, and Prosthetists, including Bio-Medical and Manufacturing Engineers in developing our insoles. The result is a collection of insoles that are as comfortable as their thicker store-bought counterparts, but much thinner,  longer-lasting, and outperforms traditional foams or cork.

       

       

      Value Driven

      As both a brand and boutique, we make products, but we also sell products from other brands. You can trust that we only support products and brands that align with our values.

      As such, our product offering must adhere to at least one of the following criteria: sustainability, repairability, eco-friendly, functional, novel, fair trade, start-up founder, minority owned, or made in the USA.

      Our Insoles & Shoe Comfort Technology

      After years of research and development I leveraged the insights and experience of an amazing team of Pedorthists, Orthotists, and Prosthetists, including Bio-Medical and Manufacturing Engineers.

      While our insoles take many forms, the result are insoles that are as comfortable as thicker insoles, but much thinner, they last longer than traditional foam or cork, and they come with a host of other benefits, including antimicrobial properties. 

       A COMMITMENT TO ETHICAL CRAFTSMANSHIP
      Every pair of Kicks For Gents has been designed to be long lasting while using high quality materials and modern comfort technology. Built to last, our kicks are repairable to avoid the landfill!

      Why Limited Inventory?

      Reduce Waste

      Manufacturing shoes in small batches reduces the waste, energy and fuel consumed when overproducing shoes that might just sit on a shelf, go to a discount outlet or, worse, be destroyed. 

      Limited inventory allows us to keep overhead minimal. We ship from a small office and can adapt more quickly to bring you what you want.

        

      Value

      Quality over quantity, it's that simple. Small batch manufacturing allows us to adapt more quickly to customer demand. Whether it be adapting to changes in shoe innovation, design, or materials, we are constantly testing the waters.

      Quality Materials

      Leather is just like skin. Without moisturizer, it can dry up and even crack. Since our shoes are handcrafted at the time a customer places an order, this ensures that the leather isn't sitting around getting dry in a warehouse or on a shelf.


      Soft supple leather will be the most comfortable to wear, reduce the break-in period and will quickly mold to the foot.

      For example, this is why when you find shoes at an outlet store, the leather is hard and it can hurt to break the shoe in. The reason for this is that by the time the shoe reaches an outlet store, the leather has been sitting in a box drying up for what could be years.
