Description
The plainest of the four shoes we carry on this sole, and the one that will get worn most. A saddle strap across the vamp with the traditional slot cut through it, a round toe, and nothing else — no tassels, no metal, no texture beyond the grain of the upper.
That restraint is what makes it work on a chunky white base. Where a tassel or a bit fights the casual sole, a plain penny strap simply sits on top of it, and the shoe reads as one idea rather than two stuck together. The upper is embossed microfibre, lined and footbedded in PU, with a rubber sole underneath.
Two colourways, black and brown. If you are buying one shoe from this family, this is the one — it goes with more, it dates less, and the strap will still look right in five years when the tassel version does not. Half sizes from UK 5½ to UK 9½. Not waterproof, and the white sole will show what it has walked through. Browse the full Men's Loafers range.

Size & Fit
These loafers are true to size. Simply select your usual size. To measure your foot: place your heel against a wall and measure from the wall to the end of your longest toe, then allow approximately 1 cm of extra space.
Care
Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after use. Avoid prolonged exposure to water and direct heat. Allow to air dry away from radiators, and store with a shoe tree or stuffing to help keep their shape.
Loafers Heritage started with a simple idea: one kind of shoe, done properly. No trainers, no boots — just loafers, chosen one pair at a time and stocked in every size we can get, delivered across the United Kingdom. Every pair has to earn its place on three points: the upper, the footbed and the sole.
How should these loafers fit, and what size should I order?
They run true to size, so order your usual UK size. If you are between sizes or have a wider foot, size up. Not sure? Stand with your heel against a wall and measure from the wall to your longest toe, then match that length to your usual size.
Do they need breaking in?
Very little. The construction and cushioned insole feel comfortable from the first wear; you may notice the upper relax and mould to your foot over the first day or two.
Can I wear them without socks?
Yes. No-show socks keep the lining fresh without breaking the clean line of the shoe, which is ideal in warmer months. If you go sock-free often, rotating between pairs helps the lining last longer.
How do I care for them?
For suede, brush with a suede or crepe brush after wear and treat marks with a suede eraser rather than water. For leather, wipe with a soft cloth and use a matching conditioner now and then. A protector spray before first wear helps both. Store with a shoe tree, away from direct heat.
Are they waterproof?
No. Leather and suede are water-resistant at best. A protector spray helps them shrug off light rain; after a heavy soaking, let them dry naturally at room temperature, away from radiators or direct heat, with a shoe tree inside to hold their shape.
