For a Holiday 2017 collection, New Republic joined forces with American fashion designer Mark McNairy.
Included in the small collection are two Chelsea-style boots that constructed from a fine suede material, as well as two iterations of furry slip-on shoes that can easily be dressed up or down, depending on the occasion. While the boots are available in a light tan hue and a deep black one, the slip-on shoes come in camouflage and black colorways. As all of the designs make use of only a few different hues and materials, the footwear has a highly minimalist aesthetic, which enables it to be incredibly versatile.
All of the styles can be found at the New Republic website, where prices start as just $29 USD.
