There’s a chance you may remember us highlighting Russell Wilson’s (yes NFL QB & Ciara’s man) lifestyle brand — Good Man Brand, some years ago for their expertly crafted sneakers. Well, the brand is still putting out some of the best sneakers on the market and we just picked up two pair.
What they continue to do well — create beautifully tailored silhouettes, use of luxe materials, focused on minimal design and a mission driven philosophy of creating sustainable footwear. With that in mind, you get sneakers that are made for people that care about craftsmanship.
So, we took two pairs of the low top sneakers — a low profile and runner to show you two ways to style them for the season.
Halo Sneaker

At first glance, the Halo sneaker channels the energy of a “Panda Dunk”—but in a far more refined way. While hype culture may have given the look a mixed reputation, what the Halo gets right is its balance: less overtly sporty, more elevated in design.
There are no bold logos shouting for attention—just thoughtfully placed black suede on the toebox and heel, giving the sneaker a strong, streamlined presence. Add to that a biodegradable sole, and you have footwear that not only looks sharp but also reflects the brand’s commitment to reducing its carbon footprint.
How To Style It
- Lean in to the sporty side of this sneaker and pair with sporty elements like a varsity jacket, jeans and a t-shirt. The end result is a look that nods to sports but is elevated.
- The silhouette of is refine, so tailored pants will look great.


Aspire Sneaker

I’m sure you’ve done a search for “cool Italian guy wearing sneakers with a blazer”—and if not, maybe it’s just me. Either way, 95% of the time, he’s rocking a runner-style sneaker.
Menswear purists may scoff at pairing sneakers with tailoring, but to that I say: live a little.
These runners hit the sweet spot with their tapered silhouette and neutral colorway, making them a natural fit with tailored outfits. In a world where chunky sneakers have dominated the last few years, it’s refreshing to slip into something sleek that still carries real presence.
Style Tips
- Make these sneakers a part of your brunch fit. Pair them with a white pant, denim shirt and a blazer and enjoy a spritz or two.
- Neutral colors will complement them best, but, don’t be afraid to contrast them with a monochromatic black look.
