Timeless styles meet modern details in Vagabond Shoemakers’ new Autumn/Winter 2025 men’s collection. This season, the brand presents a new approach to classic footwear – heritage styles are updated with contemporary elements, and clean sneakers take a new direction with soccer-inspired detailing.
Vagabond’s new men’s collection draws inspiration from the neo-prep aesthetic – classic and preppy at the core yet modernised and repurposed. Boots, boat shoes, and loafers have been updated with modern attributes, allowing them to be incorporated into both formal and casual looks. Earthy tones add a contemporary feel to the well-known classics, while materials such as soft suede and supple brown leather add a refined approach. Clean sneakers meet a sport-infused edge as the brand continues to explore soccer-inspired styles with new characteristics.
‘’This season’s men’s collection is about finding the perfect balance between formal and casual, challenging classic styles with modern attributes. Our men’s collection presents a wide range of timeless pieces created with a lot of Vagabond edge and detailing” says Maria Billson Olander, Creative Director at Vagabond Shoemakers.
Fronting the new collection is the Mike Moc boot—available in dark brown suede and black leather for a relaxed and refined look. The squared-toe challenges traditional shapes, adding a statement look to the preppy style. New Moc toe detailing adds an extra design element to the 90’s inspired silhouette, making it a standout for the season. The preppy theme is further explored in Steven – where classic college loafers meet a contemporary look. This season, Steven receives a fresh update with new colours in earthy tones, adding a modern element to the well-known silhouette.
Boat shoes remain essential as the brand re-introduces Jay boat shoes – an S/S25 style quickly established as an influencer favourite. The heritage style carries classic boat shoe characteristics, which are perfectly combined with a chunky lug sole, adding an edgy element to the silhouette. New for the season is the Jay monk shoe— crafted with great attention to detail, the new style adds a laid-back coolness through an eye-catching buckle. The brand’s sneakers segment also continues to grow, with Leo at its front. The clean, flexible, indoor-sport-inspired sneaker has been reimagined with new details, including an oversized soccer-inspired tongue for a retro feel.
The collection will be available in Vagabond concept stores, with selected retailers and online at vagabond.com starting in August 2025.
