slipkin

A slipkin is a type of shoe that is typically worn by men and is characterized by its low-cut design, which exposes the ankle. The term "slipkin" is derived from the French word "slip," which refers to a type of shoe with a low-cut heel, and "kin," which is a suffix used to denote a type or kind. Slipkins are often made from leather and feature a simple, classic design with a low-cut heel and a smooth, polished finish. They are typically worn with dress pants or suits and are often seen as a more formal alternative to loafers or moccasins. Slipkins are available in a variety of colors and materials, including black, brown, and tan leather, as well as suede and patent leather. They are often considered a timeless and versatile footwear option for men.
