The Suede Lace-Up Platform Loafers combine two things that rarely come together: the polish of a loafer and the practical fit of a lace-up. The laces let you adjust the fit across the top of the foot, and the platform adds height without the strain of a stiletto or the wobble of a narrow heel. They bring an easy, slightly retro character to an outfit and feel comfortable from the first wear, with the platform adding a little height without any real effort.
The upper is suede, which gives a soft, matte texture that looks richer than smooth leather and pairs easily with tailored trousers, cropped jeans or a midi skirt. The heel sits at mid height with a rubber sole underneath for grip and a quieter step. They are a transitional shoe that works from late summer right through autumn, with or without socks.
Sizes run 36 (US 5) through 43 (US 11), with foot lengths from 9 to 10.4 inches, and the conversion chart is on the page. The box is not included with the order. Suede needs a little care to stay looking its best: brush it with a suede brush after wear, treat it with a protector spray before the first wet day, and never soak it.
