⊞

The almond-shaped front is visually refined without being sharply pointed. Instep fit is especially important on this tassel loafer because the vamp is not adjustable.

How these dark brown loafers fit

The profile is a refined almond toe with a low dress heel. It should grip the heel and sit close over the instep without pressing. A little heel lift when new is normal. Order your usual US dress shoe size, 6 to 15 including half sizes. A little heel lift when new is normal and settles as the sole starts to flex; a heel that comes right out of the shoe means the size or width is wrong. Try them with the socks you plan to wear, because sock thickness changes how the shoe holds, and remember your dress shoe size is often different from your sneaker size. We make men's dark brown loafers in every size from 6 to 15, including size 13, 14 and 15.

Embossed leather is slightly firmer than plain leather at first and eases over a few wears. For a broad foot choose E, EE or EEE in your usual length. The four widths are D (standard), E (wide), EE (extra wide) and EEE. Going up a size to gain width only makes a slip-on loose at the heel, so choose your true length and the width that matches your foot.

Dark brown loafers in lizard-pattern leather

Two scales of pattern are used on this pair. The apron carries a larger, more pronounced lizard pattern and the sides a finer one, so the texture is strongest where the eye lands first. The panels are cut so the pattern runs in the same direction on both shoes, which means each pair is matched before it is stitched. Embossed leather is pressed under heat to raise the pattern, which also makes it a little firmer than plain leather. Shaping it over an almond toe without flattening the scales takes care at the lasting stage. Tonal tassels sit on the vamp, with no metal on the shoe.

The pattern is embossed into leather; it is not lizard skin, so it wears and cleans like any leather dress shoe. Dark brown is the most formal brown, and men's dark brown loafers like these sit comfortably with navy and charcoal suits. The pair is hand-welted with closed-channel stitching, so the sole stitching is hidden, and it can be resoled. They also suit anyone looking for brown leather loafers with texture, lizard-pattern loafers or tassel loafers for the office that are a step up from plain calf.

How do I care for these? +

Remove loose dust with a soft brush or clean cloth. Follow the care instructions for the specific leather and finish; suede, patent, patina and two-tone uppers may need different products. Test any suitable cleaner, cream or conditioner on an inconspicuous area first, and use separate clean applicators on contrasting colours. Condition only when the leather and finish need it, rather than on a fixed schedule. Let damp shoes dry naturally away from direct heat. Contact Handsole before attempting recolouring or using a treatment whose compatibility is uncertain.
