Trot trackside in style with Melbourne’s own Julius Marlow
When it comes to men’s spring racing style, boots, loafers and dress shoes are essential to complete a polished look. The type of shoes typically reserved for special occasions or wedding attendance are given an additional opportunity to shine, with the chance to make a real style statement trackside.
Melbourne-born brand, Julius Marlow creates shoes that are not only stylish, but are comfortable and practical – an essential checklist for remaining upright until the final race.
There’s a shoe for all racing styles, whether you’re keen to make a statement or stick to a classic staple.
For example, a solid navy suit can be best paired with a tan/brown boot like the Longreach; a classic Chelsea boot that delivers both comfort and longevity in a timeless and versatile package. If you’re sticking with a slick black suit, the Jax loafer’s glossy finish and punched heel detail will be the perfect finishing touch. For someone ready to push the style boundaries in a coloured suit or contrasting patterns, make a statement with the tan Master dress shoe with its unique stitching and leather panelling that makes it the flawless accessory.
As festivities and fanfare get back on track, and the race that stops the nation grabs Australia’s attention for those thrilling 4 minutes, this is the time to have some fun, dress boldly, smartly, and stylish.
