Nepo babies get a lot of flack, but I for one am totally in favor of celebrating a talented offspring. I’m not talking about actors —though I do give Jack Quaid in The Boys a pass. No, I’m talking about fashion.

Take the chukka sneaker boot.

Hailing from #SGapproved lineage of the venerated chukka boot and a stylish, low-profile sneaker, this hybrid footwear heir deserves its flowers.

Maybe you’re not a loafer guy but want a shoe for those in-between professional and social occasions. When neither a repurposed running shoe or a stuffy lace-up will do.

Or maybe you’ve got weak ankles and need a little extra support! No judgment!

Whatever the reason, chukka sneaker boots might just be the footwear you’ve been looking for.

This shoe, known as CSB from here on out, combines a variety of elements from different styles to make its own stylish statement.

I love the moccasin stitching on this Luca pair, available on Huckberry. How the chukka laces keep it from being too sporty, while the rubber sneaker bottom can definitely handle you pounding the pavement on a daily basis better than a dressier sole.

Because of its nepo baby DNA, the CSB can easily fit into plenty of occasions and outfit scenarios.

Can you wear it to work?

To the right office, sure!

On a date? Definitely.

A weekend get-together at a bar or friend’s backyard? Absolutely.

If this is the first time you’re meeting someone, it’s always a good idea to wear something you know you’re comfortable in (so you’re not fidgeting and self-conscious) yet feels just a little nicer than your usual look (so you’re putting your best foot forward).

These shoes are a nice medium between sneaker and dress shoe, so they can easily work in whatever setting you two choose.
