For spring, we’ve reimagined our tailored loafer in openweave raffia, an intricate material handcrafted by artisans in Italy’s Tuscan Hills. The looser weave and soft mesh lining create an airy, weightless feel perfect for warmer months, while supple leather accents maintain the silhouette’s polished structure. Our Flex-Front Technology ensures maximum toe flexibility you’ll appreciate in every step, along with a super soft leather interior featuring 7 layers of cloud-like comfort and full arch support.

Hazel D. ★★★★★

I was skeptical about raffia for a loafer, but the openweave pattern makes these feel surprisingly structured yet breezy. The soft mesh lining is a game-changer—no socks needed, and they still look sharp for the office.

Eva ★★★★★

The openweave raffia feels incredibly light on my feet, and the soft mesh lining means I can wear these all day without any rubbing. I’ve already gotten compliments on the handcrafted detail, and they breathe so well for warmer days.

Olivia ★★★★★

The raffia weave is tighter than I expected in person, which is a good thing—it still looks dressy but feels like I'm wearing slippers. I've gotten compliments on the texture every time I've worn them, and that soft mesh lining really keeps my feet cool on warmer days.
