Cole Haan dress (casual) shoes have featured Nike Air cushioning for years now (CH has been a Beaverton brand since 1988), but it took them several years to warm up to a hybrid with the Lunar foam platform. And perhaps in part because it was a such a long time coming, the LunarGrand Wingtip sold out quickly and is moving for numbers on the resale market that suggest this new design will meet with an enthusiastic welcome. The Cole Haan Lunar Chukka is arguably an even more perfect marriage of traditional smart shoes with cutting edge sneaker technology, a desert boot paired with a Lunaracer-like sole that in this white plus brown build shows us a new standard by which we might measure lifestyle kicks. Check them out after the jump and let us know what you think; we’ll have release info for you as soon as a drop date is confirmed. via SXH
