Tom Cruise brought wardrobe classics to the red carpet while promoting his newest “Mission: Impossible” film.
While in Sydney, Australia to promote “Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One,” Cruise arrived to the Circular Quay in a casually sharp outfit. The Oscar-winning actor wore a pale blue V-neck sweater for the occasion, paired with dark blue denim Selvedge jeans. His tonal attire was finished with a light navy blue suede jacket, creating a triple-toned outfit that was smooth and classic.
When it came to footwear, Cruise laced into a pair of combat boots to finish his outfit. The “Top Gun” actor’s pair — also one of his go-to styles — featured black leather uppers with rounded toes and zipped sides. Closed counters and stacked soles with 1 to 2-inch heels finished the pair, as well as its signature front laces. The style added a timeless finish to Cruise’s look while remaining rugged and sharp for the occasion.
Indeed, combat boots like Cruise’s are an eternal menswear staple. Lace-up pairs in a wide range of heights, colors, textures and materials have been released over the years, favored for they utilitarian roots and secure silhouette. Pairs are regularly released throughout the year from a range of brands as well, as seen in new offerings from Thursday Boots, Palladium, Dr. Martens and AllSaints.
Cruise notably took a moment to share a photo with the film’s cast during the photocall, including Simon Peg, Pom Klementiff, Hayley Atwell and Christopher McQuarrie.
Cruise’s shoe style is sharp and classic. The “Jerry Maguire” actor often wears black and brown leather oxfords and brogues on the red carpet. Off-duty, he can also be seen in leather combat boots, as well as a range of Nike and Asics sneakers.
