Inspired by the GH Bass Weejuns of Ivy/prep style of the past; the merging of 2 loved loafer silhouettes - a Leisure Handsewn and a tassel loafer. The idea was to dress down a tassel loafer, and dress up a LHS - and make a standout conversation starting loafer silhouette.
I have seen this makeup done in Asia throughout the years for a couple of mega retailers, and I ALWAYS wanted one.
Using the always in high demand Alden 986 color-8 LHS loafer as it’s base, this Van last loafer can go virtually anywhere, and be paired with any outfit. If you're going to own just 1 loafer, let alone 1 LHS loafer - this is your choice. The Van last is a super comfortable moccasin style last, and really is the best of many worlds.
A lot of the time this is clients first leap into color-8 Horween shell cordovan, but there's no reason to be fearful. This is a hard wearing piece of footwear, and you'll keep selecting it from your closet day after day!
