Men's Loafers
The Loafer — Office to Weekend
The loafer is the most versatile shoe a man can own — polished enough for a suit, easy enough for the weekend. PEDRO men's loafer range covers classic penny loafers, buckle and horsebit styles, and refined suede options, all built to slip on and go. Explore the wider men's shoe collection, or browse monk strap shoes and driving shoes for a different finish.
Penny Loafers and Classic Styles
The penny loafer is back at the centre of men's footwear — a clean, timeless silhouette that pairs with everything from suits to denim. PEDRO's range spans the traditional penny loafer, buckle detailing for a sharper edge, and suede finishes for a softer texture. Whichever you choose, a good loafer earns its place in the rotation and stays there.
How to Style Men's Loafers
Loafers move easily across the week. Pair a leather penny loafer with tailored trousers for the office, or a suede pair with chinos and no socks for relaxed weekends. For formal settings, explore oxford shoes; for warmer days, driving shoes offer the same slip-on ease. Complete the look with a leather belt.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are penny loafers?
A: Penny loafers are slip-on shoes with a distinctive strap across the front featuring a small cut-out — traditionally where a coin could be tucked. They are the classic loafer style, versatile enough for both formal and casual outfits.
Q: Are loafers formal or casual?
A: Both. A polished leather penny or buckle loafer is the safer formal choice, while suede reads softer — though a dark suede pair still works for the office. The material and colour set the tone.
Q: Do you wear socks with loafers?
A: For a formal look, wear thin dress socks or no-show socks. For a relaxed, warm-weather look, loafers are often worn sockless. No-show socks are a comfortable middle ground that keeps the bare-ankle look.
Q: How should loafers fit?
A: Loafers should fit snugly, as they have no laces to adjust — your heel should stay in place without slipping. Leather and suede soften slightly with wear, so a snug fit on day one is ideal. Check the size guide if you are between sizes.
