"Previously, when people chose dress shoes, many would ask, 'I'm buying these for business, but can I wear them casually too?' Now, the question is often, 'I'm buying these for casual wear, but can I wear them for business?' It's clear that changes in customers' business attire are influencing their shoe choices. There's also a stronger inclination towards more open colors, with brown selling better than black. Variations in brown shades, as well as Bordeaux and navy, are also drawing attention," says Mr. Fukuda.
Let's imagine new ways of styling with material and color combinations unique to autumn and winter, using suede and brown tones.

Combination | Santoni
Comfortable to wear, with excellent mixed-material combinations.

"This is a Santoni pair that truly represents this season's theme, 'Warm & Easy.' It features a mix of suede and shrunken leather (grained), in varying shades of brown. Santoni's newly developed 'Goodyear Bolognese construction' offers excellent flexibility and a soft sole, providing truly easy comfort. With two color variations, they pair beautifully with items like checked jackets."

Combination | Magnanni
The surprising lightness when worn is also a major appeal.

"It's no exaggeration to say Magnanni is a brand leading the men's shoe trend. This is a continuation of a model that was a huge hit last year, but for this season, we have an Isetan exclusive with embossed detailing. It also uses the flexible Bolognese construction, and is surprisingly light both in hand and on foot. The subtle tobacco color is incredibly elegant. Available in navy and brown, these are perfect for a jacket-and-slacks style."

Combination | Tricker's
Classic Country Style & Combination

"Our custom Tricker's feature a combination of grained leather and suede. While the model itself is simple, the British-inspired color combination of dark brown and moss green is fresh. The robust commando sole creates a masculine feel, making them a perfect match for outfits that require volume at the feet. Please choose your favorite model from our extensive selection of Tricker's."

Combination | Cole Haan
Cole Haan's Latest Model, Packed with Highlights

"This latest model is full of trendy elements, featuring a combination of three materials – embossed, smooth, and suede – the use of suede for brighter accents, matching the color of the edges and the outer stitching, and a cushioned, transparent sole. While the 'Lunargrand' remains very popular, pay attention to these classic arrangements as well."

With a trendy camouflage pattern and a driving shoe sole, these are slip-ons you can wear right away. They are perfect for adding a touch of color to your feet with a clean, balanced look."

Combination | Francesco Benigno
Focus on Unique Combinations with Gradations in Dyeing

"Francesco Benigno is known for its high technical skill, having produced OEM for many famous brands. This is a Japanese-designed color combination. These dress shoes feature a gradation of dyed colors, and their design makes you want to wear them for a night out. Having a pair in such a color is very useful for styling in autumn and winter."

A prominent trend in men's footwear today is the desire to "dress fashionably according to TPO (Time, Place, Occasion)." It's becoming mainstream to enjoy fashion by changing shoes to match the scene, whether it's for business, parties, resort, weekends, or sports.
The autumn/winter season particularly highlights elegance for formal occasions and parties, fitting the "nightwear" theme.

Elegant | Ferrante
Shoes for a Night Out That Look Great Even When Taken Off

"Ferrante is renowned for its slip-ons and is a staple brand at Isetan Men's. Last season we proposed patent leather shoes, but this season, upon closer inspection, we find camouflage loafers. The theme here is shoes with a playful touch to adorn your feet at night. Along with the impact of the camouflage, the burgundy lining adds a stylish color, making them look great even when taken off."

A Pair to Wear Under the Night Lights

"Santoni offers a wide range of models in the Isetan Men's shoe department. This is a classic, enduringly popular model from Santoni, but these dress shoes feature brighter perforations that showcase their individuality under the night lights. The orange lining expresses Santoni's signature modernity."

While chukka boots were the dominant style at Isetan Men's last season, this year's trend is "warmth," with many boots featuring enjoyable designs like shearling and buckles. The variety is also pleasing, with voluminous designs and combination details.

Warm | Antonio Meccariello
Artistic Boots with a Handmade Feel

"Antonio Meccariello, a designer and craftsman said to be leading future Italian shoe trends, crafts his boots in Naples. This pair is symbolic, embodying all of this season's trends. The design is slender and clean, with a flexible Goodyear construction for comfort, and the ease of wear is something you must experience."

A Proposal for Monkey Boots for the Discerning Gentleman

"From Ruperto in Italy, we present their most popular monkey boots. The upper is made of embossed cowhide, with an overall subdued tone, proposed as boots for the mature man to enjoy. While they have a rugged, matte appearance, the silhouette is slender, and they feature a soft Vibram sole. They become more elegant with wear and pair well with materials like wool."

Boots with a Fold-Down Shearling Lining

"These Ruperto boots are expected to arrive in late October. The upper features a camouflage combination, which is very trendy, but the point is the shearling accent when the collar is folded down. Folding them down adds volume, and they create a stylish look for this season when paired with down jackets or knit outerwear."
