Men's Black Ludlow Tassel Loafers

While the exact origins of tassel loafers are up for debate, the style emerged in the 1950s as a dressier alternative to the penny loafer. Our take on the classic is built in premium leather from C.F. Stead, an English tannery that's been perfecting its processes since the early 1900s. It features raised leather lacing along the sides—a detail rooted in traditional hand-sewn construction that adds visual interest and enhances durability and structure over time. You'll also find a Goodyear welt and stacked leather soles with rubber dovetail heels. Color: black
