J.Crew Ludlow Wing Tips Wing tips with a shirt and jeans may sound like an absolute fashion faux pas, but what if the wing tips were styled with a little more casual flair?

Sure, you can wear wing tips with a jeans and shirt ensemble, but there’s no way the resulting look will fall anywhere on the agreeable end of the styling spectrum. The shoes are just plain too dressy to pull off with such a casual outfit. If you must insist, though, we recommend adding J. Crew’s Ludlow Wing Tips to your shoe closet, which gives the erstwhile formal footwear a more casual aesthetic.

Bringing a style that combines traditional dress shoe aesthetics with a slightly relaxed flair, it should wear well enough with more formal clothes while looking loose enough to pair with more casual ensembles. We have a feeling it will make a nice alternative during those casual days you’d rather not wear sneakers, but don’t quite feeling like rolling out in a pair of leather boots.

Made with quality materials, the J.Crew Ludlow Wing Tips pair Italian calf leather on the upper with Italian leather lining and full-grain outsoles, with a full leather stacked heel for a solid build. Goodyear welt sewing allows you to replace the soles many times over, ensuring many years of use, provided you properly care for the leather. J. Crew calls it their “version of a bench-made dress shoe,” having been manufactured using the same methods as traditional Italian dress shoes to ensure premium construction.
