Known throughout the world as the very best in English elegance, Sanders & Sanders shoes are a reflection of over a century of craftsmanship. The Clive Loafer is a classic example of their practical-meets-refined approach. It’s a traditional penny loafer, named because the slot in each strap allowed just enough space to tuck a penny, the cost of a phone call in the 30s. The calf leather uppers sit on top of Sanders’ “city sole,” a non-traditional but highly durable rubber option that’s made for maximum versatility (think rainy weather).
Sanders & Sanders was established in 1873 by brothers William and Thomas Sanders of Rushden, Northamptonshire. What began as a five-person workshop grew over the years to become one of England’s most renowned shoe factories. Today, the business is in the hands of the fifth generation of Sanders’, who are still producing their exceptionally high-quality boots out of the same Spencer Road factory they’ve been in since 1924.

I’d been looking for a sturdier, high quality loafer to wear with everything from dress pants to jeans, and this is the perfect pair. They run small. 90% of the time I’m an 11.5 in dress shoes, and I needed a 12 for these.
I really like the shoes, but given the volume of the last and the lack of narrow sizes means I had to return the shoes. Too bad for me. Keith
