The 'Buck Mason x Sanders' collaboration has officially launched, merging timeless English craftsmanship with the laid-back spirit of California. This exclusive fall collection features carefully crafted pieces that elevate classic menswear with a modern touch.
A highlight of the collection is the 'Wholecut' loafer, designed in three distinct styles -- Leather, Suede, and Velvet -- each crafted from a single piece of material, offering a sleek and elegant look. Alongside the loafers, the collection also reintroduces the iconic 'Sam Chukka,' famously favored by 'Steve McQueen.' Made with rich polo brown suede and a cushioned crepe rubber outsole, the Sam Chukka is the perfect balance of comfort and sophistication.
Available starting October 22 at select Buck Mason stores and online, the Buck Mason x Sanders collection combines heritage design and West Coast ease, offering a fresh take on classic footwear.
