On Pointer

We've hailed British footwear brand Pointer's Barajas shoe as one of many recent examples of canvas' timely resurgence, but we're glad to report that they're not going to leave unrepentant leatherheads out in the cold. Pointer's Crago shoe, part of the line's spring '09 collection, is suede and nubuck without a swatch of canvas in sight, but the desert-boot-ish oxfords are, happily, far more affordable than the usual skin fare. Treat them gently, and you'll be in good shape for suede's inevitable return to the top.
Pointer Crago, $155, available this winter at Penelope's, 1913 W. Division St., Chicago, (773) 395-2351, shoppenelopes.com
