This nautical-inspired loafer is handmade in an old-world, family-style factory in Tuscany. And it shows in the best way. The hand-waxed Italian leather is beautiful, and gets cooler with wear. We like the color contrast between the warm brown and the lighter tan of the crepe rubber sole and coordinating laces. This pair is easy to slip on with jeans, and also looks great with a skirt or dress on a warm summer day.
