Women's Pointed Toe Suede Loafers, Slip-On Flats

Slip-on suede loafer with a sharply pointed toe and a penny keeper strap

Suede is cut on a long, tapered last that finishes in a pointed toe, and a single keeper strap crosses the vamp in the classic penny loafer position. There is no buckle, lace or zip; the shoe is a straight slip-on with a low-cut topline that dips at the instep to lengthen the foot. A stacked heel of roughly an inch sits under a stitched sole edge in a contrasting tone, and the topstitching outlining the vamp and toe seam is the only other detail.

Features

• Upper: Suede, with a topstitched vamp seam running to the toe.

• Strap: Penny keeper strap across the vamp.

• Toe: Pointed, elongated almond shape.

• Heel: Low stacked block heel, roughly an inch.

• Closure: Slip-on, no fastening.

• Sole: Slim sole with a contrast stitched edge.

Texture & Finish

The suede has a short, even nap that catches the light differently as the foot turns, giving the upper a soft matte depth rather than a flat surface. The sole edge is smooth and lightly polished, and the animal-print pair carries its pattern in the nap itself with a plain strap laid over it.

Fit & Sizing

A close but not tight fit through the instep, with the pointed toe taking up length ahead of the foot rather than squeezing it. Order your usual size; if you are between sizes or have a high instep, take the larger one, since there is no lacing to adjust the volume. Use the size chart on this page.

Styling & Occasion

Cropped and cuffed jeans are the natural partner, as the low topline shows the ankle and the point carries the line of the leg. They sit comfortably under tailored trousers and midi skirts for the office, and step up for dinners and weddings without the commitment of a heel.

Care

• Brush the nap with a suede brush after wearing.
• Treat marks with a suede eraser, not water.
• Keep away from rain and direct heat.
• Store with a shoe tree or paper to hold the pointed toe.
