15 Best Canvas Sneakers, According to GQ Editors in 2026

Published by Jenni Sidey

Morjas The Deck Shoe A nice, well-reviewed, dressier option from the elegant Swedish upstart. Stepney Workers Club Surma Sneaker If there’s anything I can get behind more than a simple canvas sneaker, it’s a simple canvas sneaker with contrast stitching. How We Test and Review Products Style is subjective, we know—that’s the fun of it. But we’re serious about helping our audience get dressed. Whether it’s the best white sneakers, the flyest affordable suits, or the need-to-know menswear drops of the week, GQ Recommends’ perspective is built on years of hands-on experience, an insider awareness of what’s in and what’s next, and a mission to find the best version of everything out there, at every price point. Our staffers aren’t able to try on every single piece of clothing you read about on GQ.com (fashion moves fast these days), but we have an intimate knowledge of each brand’s strengths and know the hallmarks of quality clothing—from materials and sourcing, to craftsmanship, to sustainability efforts that aren’t just greenwashing. GQ Recommends heavily emphasizes our own editorial …

Sick of Converse and Vans? Lace Up These Slept-On Canvas Sneakers Instead

Sick of Converse and Vans? Lace Up These Slept-On Canvas Sneakers Instead

Published by Jenni Sidey

Moonstar, by way of context, has been making shoes in Kurume, Japan since the late 1800s, which sounds like a made up fact, or at least a strongly exaggerated one, but just so happens to be entirely true. In the early 1900s, the shoe whizzes behind the brand mastered vulcanization—a process that bonds comfortable rubber soles to uppers of various materials, usually canvas—and after that, they never looked back. (Nota bene: For all of you Tabi freaks, Moonstar still makes a version of its Jikatabi silhouette, which was originally introduced in 1912 and might go even harder now than it did then.) Over a century later, Moonstar’s low-top canvas kicks are as carefully and caringly constructed as sneakers get, imbued with the full might of those 150-plus-years of institutional knowledge and know-how. Not to slander a product so iconic it’s essentially part of the public domain, but that’s a pedigree even Chucks might struggle to compete with. Madewell x Moonstar Moonstar Low Trainer Sneakers And Chucks are an apt comparison here, given that the three …

Google’s Canvas AI Project-Planning Tool Is Now Available to Everyone in the US

Google’s Canvas AI Project-Planning Tool Is Now Available to Everyone in the US

Published by skeptic

Canvas, the AI planning tool from Google Search, has rolled out across the US, the company said Wednesday. Canvas is essentially a project planning tool with a range of uses, including trip planning. You can select the tool directly from the AI Mode screen at the top of the Google Search results page.  The tool is integrated into AI Mode and can be used on both desktop and mobile devices, including smartphones and tablets. However, because Canvas opens a second screen beside the main chat window, it’s a little trickier to see on a smartphone. You’ll have to toggle between the screens.  Going anywhere? Maybe college? Planning trips is one of Canvas’s main functions, with the ability to view and account for flights, hotels and other relevant information in real time.  “Canvas makes it easy to build travel plans customized for your specific needs — bringing together real-time Search data for flights and hotels, details from Google Maps like photos and reviews, and relevant information from sites across the web,” a Google spokesperson told CNET.  Google …

4 creative ways I use Obsidian Canvas that aren’t just flowcharts

4 creative ways I use Obsidian Canvas that aren’t just flowcharts

Published by skeptic

Obsidian is the most powerful open-source note-taking app I know. I’ve always used Markdown in Obsidian, and even when Canvas was introduced, I initially ignored it. I found the idea of a free-form infinite board interesting, but I didn’t really give it more attention. I only started to really comprehend the importance of Canvas when I moved from simply trying to map out processes to laying ideas out in space. Rather than seeing it as a tool for documenting finished thoughts, it’s the perfect place for shaping my messy ideas. I have consistently relied on it since I started using it as my thinking surface, and I have been able to develop some of the most creative uses for it. The article control room How I design an argument before I write it Afam Onyimadu / MUO My article control room is what actually cemented Canvas as a permanent member of my workflow. When I have to write a serious article, the first thing I do is create a dedicated Canvas. I place section cards …

Illustration by Tag Hartman-Simkins / Futurism. Source: Getty Images Lazy undergrads rejoice. A new AI “homework agent” can supposedly log into your account on the learning management system Canvas and automatically complete your homework and assignments for you — streamlining the laborious, outdated process of having to copy-paste answers from ChatGPT. Called “Einstein,” the AI can even participate in discussions, reply to your peers, write essays, and take notes on recorded lectures on your behalf, its maker Companion.AI claims on its website. “Einstein has a full virtual computer with a browser — anything you can do, he can do,” the site reads, next to the smiling visage of the famed physicist Albert Einstein. “He logs into Canvas every day, watches lectures, reads essays, writes papers, participates in discussions, and submits your homework — automatically.” Companion’s founder, Advait Paliwal, described the Einstein AI tool in a tweet as “OpenClaw as a student,” referring to the viral open source AI agent that “actually does things.” Paliwal also worked on YouLearn AI, an “AI tutor” for students that …

At 40% Off, This Waxed Canvas Jacket Is a Direct Threat to Your Barbour

Published by Jenni Sidey

Are you, by chance, the last GQ reader on the planet without a waxed canvas jacket? Great to meet you, sir, and thanks for swinging by. Lest you feel unwelcome, though, there is a reason we’re prone to waxing not-so-eloquent on these waxy-as-hell toppers: they’ve been keeping menswear’s upper crust fly and dry for approximately 200 years and counting. If you’ve heard this spiel before (something something “centuries-old pedigree”), feel free to stop reading immediately, and skip straight to the maintenance section at the bottom of this guide. But on the off chance you’re itching for a way to kill a quick five minutes on a drudgy evening, indulge us, won’t you, for a hot second. Flint & Tinder Flannel-Lined Waxed Canvas Hudson Jacket Right this very moment, one of the best bang-for-your-buck waxed jackets on the market is a walloping 40% off, which is terrible news for anyone long on Barbour—and tremendous news for any frostbitten fellas looking for an impenetrable coat of their own.
