The Dries Van Noten loafer is square-toed, made in Italy and cut in a leather that does something: two-toned nuanced leather on the plain loafer, snakeskin-printed calf on the penny loafer, embossed calf on the heeled penny. Coveti carries 5 pairs across 3 styles, $1,320 to $1,400, sized EU 35 to 42. This page lists every one with the leather and the heel.

The three loafers

The Leather loafers in Tan are the plain one, square-toed in two-toned nuanced leather in tan, olive and black, the shoe to wear with everything the house makes. The Leather penny loafers in Yellow put a penny strap on the same last in snakeskin-printed calf. The Heeled leather loafers in Burgundy lift the penny onto a block heel in embossed calf.

How to wear them

With the Tailored wool pants in Black cut to the ankle and a shirt; with the Wide pleated jeans in Indigo; under a midi skirt with the Jacquard duffle coat in Sand. The loafer is the house’s answer to the question of what goes with print: a plain shoe in an interesting leather.

Fit and care

True to size; the calf lining softens in a few wears. Wipe with a soft cloth, use cream sparingly, and use shoe trees. The shoe size guide converts EU to UK and US.
