By prioritising the very elements of premium quality footwear that separate the best from the rest, Rodd & Gunn's new season shoes should be at the top of your wishlist this summer.

Carrying you from A to B, through wet rain and dry pavements, from your own backyard to the big smoke. We've selected three key styles that are for the do-ers. For the movers and shakers. For the sartorial guy who knows great style when he sees it.

The right footwear can be mixed, matched, dressed down and dressed up. This tightly curated edit contains what you need to stop off at key dress codes with confidence.

DARFIELD DERBY SHOE

Familiar with our ever-loved Dunedin Military boot? Introducing its new best friend, the men’s Darfield Derby Shoe. Similar to many constructs, the Darfield is understated in its elegance. With highly refined brass details and a classic silhouette, the burnished cow leather quarters pay homage to the traditional Derby. Never going out of style and always deserving a spot on your shoe rack.

Men's black low-cut classic leather dress shoes with leather laces.

KENDRICK SLIDE

What do you think of when we say "men's sandals"? Practical? Sensible? We're employing you to consider them in a stylistic light. Open-toe sandals are the ultimate purchase for summer days, travelling and relaxing.

Clean lines and quality materials turn what would otherwise be an ordinary summer slide to a premium quality staple that deserves a place in your footwear rotation this season. Perfectly paired with shorts, cuffed denim or chinos, the Kendrick Place Slide features a luxuriously soft moulded footbed and flexible rubber soles.

Gone are the days of needing to wear-in sandals and putting up with dreaded blisters from uncomfortable rubbing. These men's sandals ensure the perfect fit with their fully adjustable hidden hook and loop straps. Trust us, these are the shoes you'll live in come warm months.

GORDONS BAY BOAT SHOE

Tried and true to its heritage, the Gordons Bay boat shoe is Rodd & Gunn's most coveted deck shoe style, boasting burnished leather with tonal lacing and eyelet details, lined with leather and canvas to maintain a casual feel. Style boat shoes with tailored shorts and a streamlined polo for a standout look. Want to forgo the relaxation? Dress them up with dark, tailored chino pants and a button-up shirt to match a casual dress code with your updated look.
