What are some of our own favorite pairs to shop right now? There are, of course, classic menswear-inspired penny loafers from Vagabond Shoemakers, Reformation, Aeyde, and G.H. Bass. Burgundy beauties from Rag & Bone and Tory Burch add a sharp finishing touch to any fall-in-the-city outfit, while chic chain-adorned lug-soles from Bottega Veneta, Mango, and Tod’s are French-girl approved. Luxury leather pairs from Prada, Gucci, and Loewe aren’t to be missed if you’re looking to invest, while High Street options from Zara, H&M, and Mango feel just as special. Honorable mention goes to sumptuous suede loafers from Paige, Miu Miu, and Valentino—and Isabel Marant’s leopard-print pick.
As evidenced by Bieber and the entire street style scene, the best lug-sole loafers can be worn anywhere and—more importantly—with anything this cold-weather season. Below, prepare to upgrade your shoe game with 39 chunky loafers that are as timeless as they are fresh and cool.
