My inspiration for our Fez Loafer came from a trip to Fez, Morocco where I was given these beautiful slippers with an asymmetric toe shape. Inspired, I wanted to design around this slipper and marry it with a classic penny loafer. I removed the heavy stitching detail you might associate with a penny loafer to enhance the minimal and clean look. Unlike a classic penny loafer with a hard leather upper, Fez features a soft deconstructed upper.
I added a rubber insert on the sole to provide traction and durability. Our signature insole padding will give this loafer a comfortable fit similar to our best-selling Pia Ballerina.
