Are camp mocs still cool?
Simple question: are camp mocs still cool?
Hey guys, gals, and non-binary pals, we got a puppy and I’m looking for an excuse to buy another pair of shoes that are easy to slip on for morning walks and potty breaks.
In particular, the roughout Camp Mocs from Oakstreet Bootmakers has caught my eye.
For context, I used to follow MFA and fashion in general a lot more back in college, but I’ve started to dress a lot more simply since working from home and life getting busier. I’d describe my style as pretty close to the “Basic Bastard” with a few basic ALD-ish pieces thrown in.

They are not the most on-trend shoe, but I wear them regularly for the reasons you mentioned. It's the easiest pair of shoes to just leave by the door to throw on quickly.
They can definitely be cool. Outfits with a relaxed/loose silhouette paired with some camp mocs sounds great, but a henley and slim jeans with those mocs would look pretty off trend
I was definitely thinking some 5-6” shorts and a boxy tee as the warm weather rolls in. Maybe some slightly-tapered chinos and a boxy tee.
Boxy tee sounds good, as would a camp collar shirt maybe open over a tank top
Baggies etc too
A camp collar shirt is a good idea, I haven’t upped my spring/summer shirt game in a while!
If you want them for summer months, I’d suggest a pair in snuff suede (I think some places may call the color peanut).
