FAQs
What material are these loafers made of?
The upper is made of 100% suede, with a Napa leather lining, a polyurethane insock, and a thermoplastic rubber outsole.
Are these loafers suitable for formal occasions?
These are best suited for smart-casual or casual occasions. While stylish, the suede material and loafer design are generally not considered formal wear.
How should I clean my suede loafers?
Use a soft-bristled suede brush for regular cleaning. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and always test in an inconspicuous area first. Avoid water.
What does 'penny strap' refer to?
The penny strap is a classic design feature found on loafers, consisting of a strip of leather across the vamp with a slit where a penny could historically be placed.
Can I wear these loafers in wet weather?
It is not recommended to wear suede loafers in wet weather, as moisture can stain and damage the suede material. It's best to protect them with a suede protector spray and avoid puddles or rain.
How do I ensure the right fit?
These are slip-on loafers. They should feel snug but not tight when you first try them on. Suede can stretch slightly over time, so allow a brief break-in period.
What is the sole height?
The sole height for these loafers is 1cm.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears discolored or dirty
Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, consult a specialized suede cleaning product and follow its instructions carefully.
Loafers feel tight or uncomfortable
Wear the loafers around the house with socks for a short period to allow them to mold to your feet. If they remain uncomfortably tight, they may be the wrong size.
Soles are slippery
Ensure the thermoplastic rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. If the slipperiness persists, consider a sole grip enhancement product, though this is uncommon with this type of outsole.
Loafers have lost their shape
Use shoe trees when not wearing the loafers to help maintain their original shape. Stuffing them with acid-free tissue paper can also help when traveling.
