Fortunes of war

The new collaboration between Red Wing and Nom de Guerre only makes sense: The former manufactured standard-issue boots for the American military during both world wars, and this season the latter took its inspiration from WWII servicemen. The results are intriguing—moc-toe work boots made from waterproof nubuck. They make for durable, handsome footwear, the sort that ought to sustain you throughout the season (but, sadly, won't be available until after Christmas).
$285, available Dec. 26 at Nom de Guerre New York, 640 Broadway, NYC, (212) 253-2707, nomdeguerre.net, and at Nom de Guerre's shop at Opening Ceremony Los Angeles, 451 N. La Cienega Blvd., L.A., (310) 652-1120
