Luxury Shoe Brands Mens

Growing up, my parents always expressed the importance of wearing high-quality shoes.  Now that I have a family of my own, I am instilling the same values and love for high-end shoes with my children.

Just as my 12-year-old son’s feet were growing from boys sized feet to men’s sized feet, ACE Marks handcrafted men’s shoes were launched in 2016.   Giving a pair of Ace Marks dress shoes was the perfect way to introduce him to the importance of wearing luxury shoes.

My son was more than thrilled to learn this luxury shoe line has now launched their luxury Italian sneaker collection, luxury Italian socks, and an all-new collection of handcrafted Italian dress shoes, some of which are finished with their exclusive Tramonto Patina.

Dress Shoes:

• It’s a $600 luxury shoe for less than $200. Ace Marks is handcrafted in Italy by a family of 4th generation  master craftsmen. Their work for other labels usually retails north of $600, but on Kickstarter they offer them under $200.

1. 1. Blake Flex Construction.  They use a blake flex construction so that their shoes are light, flexible, and don’t require a break-in period. It is comfortable out of the box, especially combined with their proprietary Ace Last, and can be resoled.
   2. Proprietary “Ace” last built for all-day wear.  Each Shoe is built on a proprietary Ace Marks last that is designed to reduce common pressure points on the ball and heel of your foot. This allows for comfortable all-day wear.

• Premium Full Grain Calfskin Leather Upper & Lining. Ace Marks are made from the best Italian full grain calf-skin leathers. The interior of the shoe is also fully lined with calf skin leather to increase comfort and breathability.

• Handcrafted,  Hand Dyed, Hand Burnished. Their manufacturing process is very manual. Each pair passes through the hand of their artisans as they masterfully put together each pair. They are one of the last artisans that still hand dye and hand burnish each pair of shoes in-house at our workshop.

• They buy back their shoes and donate them. Partnering with Career Gear, they will take back worn pairs of Ace Marks and give our customers a $60 credit towards a new pair.  The worn pairs are donated to help men in need get back on their feet and rejoin the workforce.

• Stylish yet professional.  They wanted to provide professionals with the ability to wear a dress shoe that is very stylish but still professional. Ace Marks were designed for the modern professional who has a bit of swagger and is looking to step up their style and stature.

SNEAKERS:

• It’s a $400 luxury sneaker for less than $170. Ace Marks is handcrafted in Italy by a family of 4th generation master craftsmen.

1. 1. Handcrafted. Their sneakers are handcrafted by their family of Italian artisans. Each pair passes through the hand of our artisans as they masterfully put together each pair.

• Premium Full Grain Calfskin Leather Upper & Lining. Ace Marks are made from the best Italian full grain calfskin leathers found usually in top quality dress shoes. The interior of the shoe is also fully lined with calfskin leather to increase comfort and breathability.

• Details tailored for all-day wear. a) Pillow padded cushioned Tongue & Collar give a soft and luxurious feel like you are wrapping your feet in a down comforter; b) insoles are shock-absorbing, calfskin lined, and perforated for maximum breathability and comfort.  They are also removable.

1. Waxed Shoe Laces. The laces are waxed for extended life.
2. Stitched Rubber Outsoles. The outsoles are stitched not glued for increased durability and extended life.

Ace Marks has the best luxury, mens dress shoes.  I am happy my son has been introduced to.   Everyone time he wears his upscale menswear shoes he receives many compliments.
