A penny loafer that went on holiday and never fully came back. The classic penny strap and clean moccasin lines, dropped onto a braided espadrille sole — polished up top, barefoot-easy underneath.

Soft Italian suede with the signature penny strap across the saddle and a hand-stitched apron along the toe, set on a braided espadrille midsole and a rubber outsole that grips where jute alone would wear thin. You get the polish of a penny loafer with the summer-light feel of an espadrille. Handcrafted in Florence and true to size.

Wear it with: linen trousers and a polo, rolled chinos, or shorts straight off the boardwalk.

Upper: Soft Italian suede with penny strap
Lining: Full-grain calf leather
Insole: Leather, breathable
Midsole: Braided espadrille (jute)
Outsole: Rubber, durable and sure-footed
Construction: Hand-stitched apron
Fit: True to size, between sizes, size up
Made in: Florence, Italy

Suede: Brush gently after each wear. For stains, use a suede eraser. If caught in rain, stuff with paper and dry naturally away from direct heat.

Sole: Apply leather conditioner every 3–4 months. The sole develops a natural patina with wear.

FREE shipping across the US and Canada. Orders ship within 1–2 business days and arrive in 2–3 days. 30-day returns and a 365-day warranty on every pair. If something isn't right, we'll make it right.

Every pair is handcrafted in Florence and built to be worn for years. We back that with a full 365-day warranty against manufacturing defects — faults in the stitching, sole, or leather. If a pair is genuinely defective, we'll replace it.

Normal wear, creasing, and the patina suede develops over time aren't defects — they're the life of a real leather shoe, and most can be restored. For repairs and resoling, just contact us on the contact page and we'll help.

Hand-lasted in Florence, worn everywhere.
The Making

Hand-lasted in Florence, worn everywhere.

Each pair passes through a single Florentine artisan — from the cut of the velvet suede to the hand-stitching of the leather sole. Our last has been unchanged since 1970. We see no reason to change it.

Craftsmanship

Four days. One pair.

Materials

Built to be worn in.

01
Velvet Suede Upper

Sourced from a single tannery in the Arno valley. Hand-dyed in small batches — the nap deepens and softens with every wear.

02
Full Leather Lining

Full-grain calf leather, untreated, that shapes itself to your foot over the first twenty wears. The fit improves.

03
Hand-stitched Sole

Genuine leather sole with rubber heel tap, hand-stitched using the traditional Florentine chain stitch. Resolable after two years.
