The warm weather is finally rolling around and we imagine that you're just as excited as we are to hop out of winter boots and into summer shoes.

If it's still a bit chilly where you are (or you're not quite ready to stop wearing boots), opt for the Carbine. This versatile shoe can be worn all day or dressed up for nighttime. Plus, the laces provide the perfect opportunity to add a pop of color! Choose from one of three different colors - black, brown, and olive - to find the perfect match!

When you're ready to make the shift, start off slow with one of our casual shoes. If you love tie-ups, we recommend the Core or Misfit styles for this spring! These lightweight sneakers are a great go-to on an informal day. Not trying to deal with laces? Check out the Marley - a laid-back slip-on with a little edge. Durable yet low-maintenance, the Marley is available in hemp, suede, or canvas, so you can pick your preferred material.

Already feeling the heat? Slip into sandals and enjoy the fresh air. We're deciding between the Austin and Monterey for our leading flip-flop. The pillow-soft footbeds offer amazing support and keep your feet from tiring out. Be sure to fix up your feet - especially those toenails - before showing them off.

• Rules
• Both socks must match
• No holes or stains
• Correspond to the dress level of your outfit
• Opt for knee-length over ankle-length when wearing pants. Don't let any flesh show!
• Fiber
• Wool
• Most traditional
• Best insulation (to warm your feet when cold and cool them when warm)
• Absorbs moisture
• Cotton
• Most common
• Relatively inexpensive and durable
• Fused with other fibers for a snug fit
• Lightweight
• Machine washable
• Cashmere
• Similar properties to wool but far less cumbersome
• Luxurious
• Proper care required
• Silk
• Second most luxurious
• Formal fabric for formal affairs
• Delicate; not very durable
• Proper care required
• Shorter lifespan
• Designs
• Neutral
• Professional or black tie events. Match the color of the sock to that of your pants.
• Can be worn casually as well.
• White socks are exclusively for working out.
• Colored
• Pastel or bright colors will pop!
• Try to accent colors already in your look. Contrast or complement.
• Patterned
• Do not match the pattern of your sock to another pattern in your look.
• Do not go overboard with patterns.
• Boot socks
• Ideally paired with chunky boots.
• Provides exceptional comfort.
• Can serve as a central point for color.
• Care
• Hand wash nicer socks with fine fabric soap
• Hang dry your nicer socks. (Read the label!)
• Fold or roll socks in drawer rather than stretching out the elastic.
• Refresh sock drawer three to four times a year, at least.
• Tips
• Avoid wearing socks with shorts when possible. Although this look can be pulled off, you're stuck with the dilemma of either folding your socks down, which is never recommended, or wearing them straight up - yikes!
• Pair socks with another color in your outfit. Seek out the scarcer colors for an unconventional style.
• Select complementary colors to keep it simple.

• Stick to brogue shoes (wingtips) - oxfords, bucks, and even some dress shoes will work.
• Avoid rocking colored laces in super formal situations. This trend is fun, so don't expect to be taken too seriously.
• Don't overdo it. Too much accessorizing can easily lead to overkill. Opt for color laces only when there isn't a lot of distraction from the rest of your outfit. 
• Switch up the laces on one of our most classic boots this winter, the Crevo Buck Boot.
• Last but definitely not least, be confident when going bold! If people are staring, they're probably just admiring!
