The Generic Man or
TGM is known for their high end collection of footwear for stylish guys who have tired of their collection of
Nikes, The Generic Man features styles ranging from casual slip-
ons a la
Vans to high top sneakers, boots with leather soles, vaguely wingtip looking numbers and some casual kicks with natural crepe soles. Hand constructed in Italy, the shoes are all suede and leather, though several feature unusual finishes such as bright orange dye, "caviar" leather, and even some metallic treatments. Somehow, though, The Generic Man never feels over the top, childish or tacky. The understated silhouettes of the shoes and their fusion of classic, casual and straight up
sneaker aesthetics are sure to make the collection a big hit with the aging
sneakerhead and perennially casual professional alike. Check out the
TGM collection at GEMS.
