The "Rutger" contemporary oxford is perfect for a modern guy who wants something that's more interesting than your run of the mill lace-up oxford. It also has a non-skid sole making it a more practicle. I own this particular pair of shoes and really like them for their look and versatility. Buy Direct

Donald Pliner first opened a high end shop in Beverly Hills in 1967, but it wasn't until 1971 that he started to design clothing, shoes and accessories. Donald's success in doing so was recognized and in 1984 he was recruited to design shoes for Intershoe, Inc., a major conglomerate. 1989 was the year he created the current Donald J Pliner brand we know today, and it was 1998 when he introduced his men's line. His designs are progressive, innovative and distinctive. Here I have chosen my “top picks” in men’s Donald J Pliner shoes.
