Discover the New HAWKINS ‘Smart Casual’ Series

HAWKINS has recently unveiled an exciting addition to its popular ‘Smart Casual’ series, targeted at those stepping into the world of leather shoes for the first time. This launch features actor Hiroya Honda, who showcases the collection’s stylish versatility through a fresh visual campaign that will be available in all ABC-MART stores and their official online store starting from October 2, 2025.

A Perfect Introduction to Leather Shoes

Designated as ideal for transitioning from sneakers, the ‘Smart Casual’ series combines the comfortable feel of sneakers with the elegant aesthetic of leather shoes. The collection proposes a sophisticated adult style while ensuring that wearers do not feel overly dressed. Hiroya Honda exemplifies this effortless elegance by pairing the shoes with sharp outfits like blazers and slacks, creating a look that is polished yet relaxed—perfect for contemporary tastes.

The ‘Smart Casual’ line reinterprets traditional classic footwear for the modern lifestyle, providing a solution to common concerns such as how to choose the right leather shoes or the assumption that they are stiff and heavy. This range is crafted not only for those new to leather shoes but also appeals to the fashion-forward youth looking to incorporate trendy components into their wardrobe. Whether matched with tailored fits, wide pants, or casual streetwear, these shoes fit seamlessly into various styles.

Comfort Meets Style

Constructed from genuine leather, the shoes promise to mold comfortably to the wearer's feet over time, allowing each pair to become uniquely theirs. Features such as cushioned insoles and lightweight, flexible outsoles facilitate a level of comfort that sneaker enthusiasts will appreciate. The shoes' simple yet refined design allows them to transition effortlessly from business settings to casual outings, ensuring they integrate smoothly into daily life.
