You've got to appreciate a pair of boots that fit and feel like pair of sneakers. These good looking suede boots are handcrafted by Rancourt & Co. in Maine exclusively for Huckberry. The uppers are made from a supple roughout leather that seems tailor made for fall and requires minimal break-in. And the Vibram Christy outsole adds excellent traction along with all-day comfort.

There are countless Shetland wool sweaters, but there is only one Shaggy Dog. And there will only ever be one. The sweater was quickly trademarked by Irving Press, son of the brand's founder—after he came up with the idea to comb the wool of a Shetland sweater. The idea was to make them look and feel lived in. The result was an ultra soft and fluffy sweater that was lightweight, warm and scratch-free. And now you can get the classic sweater in a more modern fit with university stripes on one arm. The question is, what color suits you?

It features a matte navy dial with gray and red accents, along with a 30 minute counter and running seconds sub-dials.
