Sea Styles Are Landed

Seagoing fashions turn amphibious this spring and make the transition to beach and cabana landlubbers. — *— The nautical look, translated into new designs in the seaman’s traditional navy blue deim, is evident in pants, shorts, tops and bathing suits. Pants and shorts designs are influenced by blue jeans, a favorite

America. Traditional in appear- ' ance, the modern brogue- is a far cry from the “two-pound" shoe of yesteryear- Thanks to new leather - making processes, the new brogues look beefy but are as light afoot as a coniinetal-styled oxford. Leather Grains The brogue fashion has given impetus to a new interest in leather grains. The smooth look is still a popular one, but big, rugged leather grains are being.seen on city streets and -suburban i courts. Pebbled grains, large patterns and deep lines make the fashion news. Eve the tapered American ’ continental style shose, which I have become a men’s shoe classic > in the last decade, are showing i signs of the good life. Though the i mocassin silhouette, is still the style leader in this -field, more •styles are- seen with moc fronts I and laces. Detailing, such as per- ■ tend to r-un over- more lof the shoe and to be larger in i size.

Higher front, higher back , and higher laces distinguish fa- : vored shoes for the high school I man. For his leisure hours, the ' smartly and comfortably dressed i man will step out in handsewn slip - ons. The hand-stitched mocj easin in soft, supple leathers set on lightweight leather soles has I been a standby in the collegian’s wardrobe.
