He teamed both pieces with a dark blue button-down shirt and matching tie. Sticking to a sophisticated style moment, he simply accessorized with a silver watch.

Completing the NFL player’s wardrobe was Wolf & Shepherd’s Swiftknit Loafers. The silhouette includes a flexible knit construction and a cushy arch-supporting insole bringing sporty comfort to a modern loafer with sneaker DNA.

Often made of leather, loafers are slip-on shoes worn by all genders. Loafers were first popularized in the 1950s amongst men, yet evolved over time into many styles and silhouettes. Unlike leather dress shoes, loafers are a more casual footwear choice, perfect for any occasion including attending high-profile red carpet events.
