This classic Penny Loafer is made in Italy at a factory that’s been making shoes since the 1930s. It’s crafted from Italian calf suede, and lined in soft leather for an easier break-in period. The rubber sole provides good traction, and more versatility during inclement weather; a stacked wood heel and topstitching throughout adds timeless style. The origin of the Penny Loafer can be traced back to 1934, when G.H. Bass designed the Weejun: a loafer with a strip of leather stitched across the saddle of the shoe, featuring a shaped cutout. These would become the shoe of choice for young men and students in the 1950s; they would keep a dime in the cut-out, which eventually gave the shoes their colloquial name, “Penny Loafer.”

Runway Collection:
La Buena Vida | Vintage Style

Todd’s Spring/Summer 26 runway collection balances structured tailoring and soft sensuality, inspired by the faded glamour of Havana in the 50s and the swagger of a guy stepping off a plane in Miami in the 80s.

The sweaters in La Buena Vida are all inspired by mid-century styles, layering in different old-school details: an extra tab closure at the hem, tapered waists, extended collars, vintage-inspired patterns, and more.

    Stunning Loafers

    These loafer's are fantastic. The are comfortable and well made. Very soft and the quality is...well what you expect from a$600+ pair of shoes. These are the perfect combination of dress and casual loafers I have been looking for. I just ordered the Milkshake color for a trip I will taking shortly.
