You might wear a speedo to South Beach, but you are a man,
and should enjoy a man's summer refreshment, with the odd
delights of Hendrick's Gin: featuring infusions of rose
petal and cucumber, it's iconoclastically made in Scotland,
and can be taken down simply with tonic and a slice of
'cumber, or in sun-friendly recipes from the Floradora to
the Duffytown Pony -- all guaranteed to provide more
relaxation, and less skin. Get curiously classy recipes at
HendricksGin.com

Del Toro Shoes

Too often, enjoying leisure activities means enduring
terribly un-leisurely acts, like taking three flights to
chill on a European beach, or hacking off your toe with pill
cutters just to get the finest pain pills to cut with them.
For shoes from guys whose respect for their leisure
facilitates yours, Del Toro.

DTs're the brainchild of two Palm Beach prep school buddies
who dreamt of celebrating graduation by kickin' back,
smoking cigars, and wearing velvet shoes with their school
emblem on them, until realizing they take nine months to
make, and they'd actually have to get jobs to pay for them,
and said screw that, let's do it ourselves; they now make
velvet Prince Albert slippers normally worn with tuxes,
interpret them as more casual loafers, and trick 'em out
with emblems and custom monograms/images. All shoes're made
in Spain with leather soles and heels, and come in either
black, navy, or forest green velvet with black trim; you can
go clean or choose from an array of emblems like skull &
crossbones, palm trees, soccer players, an old-timey bike
with a huge front wheel, or the U of M "U" logo or its
pissed-off Ibis -- though its unclear whether he's upset
because the 'Canes stink, or your feet do. To go full
custom, either input a monogram (after choosing velvet
color, thread color, and font you desire), or upload any
image (i.e., family crest, martini olive, your frat's
initials); once digitized, DT'll email you a shot of what
the embroidered version'll look like to make sure
everything's good, then proceed with production, and in 1/3
the time of other custom loafer-makers, you'll be the only
kid on the block with John Larroquette-face shoes.

As DT just launched the custom site, they'll soon be adding
further customization options like trim color in addition to
new velvet colors, more schools, (e.g., Ivies and ACC
heavyweights), and the option to have shoes made in whatever
fabric you want -- pick one that can stand up to the Aegean
Sea as you lay heavily sedated in the surf.
