One Esquire editor wears these Cole Haan slip-ons to the office all the time, and the whole team loves them. I’ll let my co-associate commerce editor, Bryn Gelbart, speak for himself:
“It pains my fiancee greatly that I treat all my sneakers like slip-ons. Now she doesn’t have to worry. These Cole Haan Quick-on Oxfords have that work-friendly buttoned up look, but they let me slip in last minute as I’m on my way out the door without any consequences. Or you can treat ’em as a classy pair of laced sneakers, your call. Both ways, you wind up benefiting from the comfort of the cushioned sole and foam footbed.”

We’re also big fans of Amberjack here at the office. Amberjack’s whole ethos is to make shoes that are equally as comfortable as they are stylish, and these slip-on loafers are a great example of that. My boyfriend wears Amberjack loafers to work, out to dinner, even just around the house because they’re so comfortable. Part of that comfort is due to the removable, heat-activated insoles that mold to the shape of your foot for a custom fit.

If there’s one brand that’s known for slip-on sneakers, it’s Kizik. I’ve been wearing Kizik’s new Freedom Run sneakers on my runs recently, but let’s take it back to where the brand started: leather slip-on sneakers. These sleek full-grain leather sneakers are professional enough to wear to work but can also be a great option for a casual everyday shoe. They also have super-soft, responsive midsoles that add cushioned comfort all day long.

Rothy’s makes a cool, modern twist on the classic Oxford: These slip-on Oxfords are knit with natural hemp and organic cotton for a super breathable (and environmentally friendly) upper, and they’re fully machine washable. If you have trouble sliding them on, there’s a sturdy heel tab to help you out. (Note that these shoes run small, so you should order a half size up.)
