As I child I almost never wore denim; I don’t think I owned a proper pair of jeans until I hit uni. And now I have a lingering obsession with all things denim. Maybe it’s the Canadian in me? Maybe it’s just because I am cooler than you are.
Enter a denim Berluti – have you ever seen a better juxtaposition between low brow and high class? Made in Italy, the Berluti ‘Playfield’ sneakers have been cut from burnished Venezia leather that’s offset by panels of dark-wash denim. Available through Mr. Porter, $1115
