Every February there is a pair of shoes that reclaim a key place in our wardrobe, and this year it’s the suede loafers. Comfortable, practical and very easy to pair with, they work especially well in that transitional moment when it’s still very cold, but we start to look for lighter looks for when the weather grants us a break.
Although classic loafers never disappear, the suede versions have something special. They are just as versatile, but they bring a softer and more sophisticated air when paired with jeans, straight-leg pants, or neutral looks. That’s why many women (especially the French) prefer them to other stiffer flat shoes.
This season I’ll include them in many of my looks because they have it all. They don’t tire you, they’re elegant and you can walk in them for hours. Moreover, far from what many people tend to think, their extensive range of options is quite varied.
