Looks like an Oxford, feels like a sneaker

For some of us, the difference between our dining tables and workspaces has dwindled into nothing. Maybe the same can be said about your living room-turned-break-room hybrid. If this sounds like you, your work uniform also probably looks slightly different these days — more pajama and a little less professional. By virtue of an era when coworkers and housemates are one and the same, maybe it's time your weekday shoes started to act like your weekend shoes. (Or is it the other way around?) We’d like to introduce you to 4.ZERØGRAND, a technical oxford that gladly mixes business with pleasure.

There are three things you should know about the 4.ZG. The first is that it is the sort of shoe that plays well with others. The lightweight upper is accented by perforated detailing that keeps things looking smart while providing ample airflow. It also gives it the of polish we all could use these days. Style them with slacks or jeans, and they'll adapt with ease.

The second thing is that the 4.ZG is high on style and low on compromises. To keep things punchy, there's a contrasting pop on the collar and sole. That sole does a lot more than just stand around looking good — a responsive insole provides cushion and deep grooves that run the length of the sole offer flexibility and traction.

Lastly, Cole Haan collaborated with six artists to create custom artwork highlighting, exploring, and celebrating the new way we work. When work is home, home is work, and you long for the days before your daily grind was a bit more finely ground, maybe what you need is a little refresh that starts from the ground up.
