So before I got into construction I tried my hand at big rig driving and I bought my first pair of driving mocks and loved them they became my truck shoes for the 8 months I drove OTR
If you're not supposed to go out and about with them, and only use them indoors or while driving, why does it matter what you wear them with? You're just going to take them off when you get to your destination, right?
I find their use a bit limited. when I'm casual, I want clothes that are bit more hard wearing. like you said, only best for in a car or a house. anyways, thanks for the great video!
Hi Sven, first, i thank you for the site and the channel. I suscribe. Your work and passion help me several times when i buy a dress; your stories of the icon of male elegance are very informative and exhaustive. I Care to underline, only for completeness of information, and for recognize the merits to those who have them, that Della Valle don't has invented the driving mocs with rubbern knobs. The inventor has been Gianni Mostile, that in 1963 deposited the patent of this new type of shoes, with the brand "Car Shoe", yet sold today. Della Valle has been able to give a new impulse at this model and spread this in the world, but the idea was not his. The same goes for the brand fay(american in origin), that produced the jacket model "fireman", a beautiful garment, thatwould merite a greater interest.
TODS? Not worth the money? You are so funny and if they wear out to quickly... simply get more of them. I have 26 pairs (TODS gomminos alone) for over a couple of years now and most of them are looking still very reasonable. I am wearing them not only for driving but also in town. i love the comfy and relax style and wear them from spring to autumn ('fall 'for you however you are German origin) in Munich, when ever appropriate and weather permits. Keep up the good work and your humour.
I honestly despise loafers and moccasins, nothing about them attracts or interests me, not even the history which is what I usually find most interesting about all the different items in menswear.
For me driving mocks or moccasins never work!!! they r just very uncomfortable for me....i prefer loafers over it as they r like way better and comfortable!
Early on I had a big disdain for people wearing Driving shoes to walk around just because it paired great with the outfit. The shoe isn't great for walking around in and those dots will wear out pretty quick. Idk, it just irked me that people didn't realize what the function was for those shoes. But Im coming around and I can see why people wear it... But still, come on guys, you won't get much life outta these shoes.

i have a pair of mocs that I wear out and about and they are fine. Only catch is you CANNOT wear them when it is wet.
I had a pair of deerskin mocs. They got wet and were ruined because of the water stains.
Could you walk in them for like a day fine?
@@lilwhahdbensnxygdbs1025 as long as it dry out, yes.

Apprently 4 years wasn't long enough for them to respond 😂 but yeah this doesn't make any sense
Those are for the ones with rubber soles if that style is to be chosen...
I wear a pair of Cole haan driving moccasins everyday for about two years now and they are holding up fine
LOVE This video! Very informative Raphael. My girlfriend HATES when I wear mine lol. So comfortable to wear though 👍🏻
Excellent work my friend, very informative.
Can you do a casual travelling video / guide? Say if you were to go on vacation for 3 weeks. Thanks!
Skate shoes are good for driving too, their sole aren't thick it's an effect from the exterior and they are comfortable.
Agreed… vans slip-ons work great for me!
On your next long flight, wear driving mocs. You'll be happy you did.
L.L. Bean is king at this
Mr Elton .. i have my bally since 8 years ago and still wear it !..
I find their use a bit limited. when I'm casual, I want clothes that are bit more hard wearing. like you said, only best for in a car or a house. anyways, thanks for the great video!
Yes, but do they really wear that fast?
I love your videos, Sven. But does your wife ever say "enough with the primping already, let's go!"?

Thanks for sharing.
I hope of i has not been too much fussy, seen that,as said, i appreciate a lot your passion in this work. Thanks sven :)
Thank you for this video mocassins are m6 favourite shoes. I do not like loafers I do not like loafers. I also prefer mocs over fahion sneakers.
Wow! Probably the most informative mens clothing video ever :) Great work!!
Are boat shoes a good alternative?
Or this is a must have?
Ralph, please please consider making an April Fool's prank video where you speak only in your native language.
I would love that, since I know little German it would be a nice exercise :P
I just hope Driving Mocs dont end up like Boat Shoes. Everyone and their mother had a pair.
UrbanDanger ! May I ask why?
Mocs are great.
UrbanDanger naw, just frat boys and a few guys you see when you are out and about. I doubt driving mocs would become as popular as boat shoes
i only wear mocs now.... and my douvche bag shades
What's a color that'll go with anything?
Muy lindo donde se pueden comprar
Ayrton Senna Using that in NSX.
What is your opinion on camp mocs?
this vid is right on time
Are mocs comfortable for people with arched feet?
Never my friend

Bravo maestro.
Great vid
What brands of moccasins do you recommend?
+Daniel Rivera check out our guide
Can I just use loafers with shorts? I think the elongated toe italian type loafers are to dressy for shorts. Would you agree?
Gentleman's Gazette I walk a lot
Any advice for peasants who are on a budget? :3
AZBareFeet used on eBay, some good deals.
Your shoes are laughing harder than I am
your ring is nice
Why would someone spend money on a pair of shoes that can only be worn inside a car?
racing booties for a racecar driver
Drivers are awesome. Stylish AF. Get yourself a pair of Salvatore Ferragamo Parigi drivers and you’ll thank me later 👍
I honestly despise loafers and moccasins, nothing about them attracts or interests me, not even the history which is what I usually find most interesting about all the different items in menswear.
That's a lot of passion directed at a shoe lol...
The only time I see a loafer being useful or superior to other shoes is if you travel a lot by plane.
❎. Thank you
🤺💐
Less sandals , shoes without socks look awkward to me.
I, always wear socks
这不就是东百社会银标配的豆豆鞋嘛
Shoes you only wear to drive make no sense to me. Don't you drive wearing the same shoes you'll wear out of the car? I'm so confused...
For me driving mocks or moccasins never work!!! they r just very uncomfortable for me....i prefer loafers over it as they r like way better and comfortable!
Tods .. bally are the best of all..
I don't recommend driving mocs, I have a pair of Bally Driving mocs and after like 3 or 4 wears they already have a hole at the toe. $500 wasted.
elton rivera the crap😮😮😮 $500 and already falling apart after 4 wears. What you been doing, playing football/ soccer in them?
koolyo2foots He could be doing NASCAR :D
elton rivera lord they are so cute but it's so expensive .... and fragile lord what an unfortunate investment thanks for sharing
If we are only allowed to wear these in cars and indoor, it'd be better to stay barefoot.
I love that you went barefoot in them. 😋
first
👞Driving Mocs are Sexy
What kind of shoe is not meant for walking? 😂 Seriously, just do what ever you like in your shoes, guys.
Really? I see people wear mocs with suits a lot. ok he messed up my outfit idea.

Ridiculous looking and utterly nonfunctional things, pretty much always.
