| Leather Gathered-Toe Penny Loafers Men: Choose this if you want a classic black penny loafer with a genuine leather upper and lining, a padded leather-covered footbed, and a gathered moc toe with a penny strap across the vamp. It is a Simons exclusive designed in Canada, with an embossed non-skid outer sole, offered in Black in sizes 8 through 13, and includes signature storage bags. Note that the outer sole is listed as other material rather than leather, so it suits shoppers prioritizing leather on the upper and interior only.[1,2] | Smooth Leather Penny Loafers Men: Choose this if you want a Simons-exclusive penny loafer designed in Canada and made in Spain, with a polished black leather upper, leather lining and padded leather-covered footbed, moc-toe apron with penny strap, and an embossed non-skid rubber sole — a look that one reviews analysis found suits professional settings thanks to its subtle leather and attractive color. Be aware that the same analysis reports inconsistent sizing (the shoe runs large, and EU 41 does not correspond to US 8), very hard material that may cause a painful break-in, and a twisted-toe defect on the right shoe reportedly found on every pair in one store, making it a gamble unless tried on in person.[3] | Santiago Suede Penny Loafers Men: Choose this if you want a classic suede penny loafer with traditional details, including a moc-toe apron, penny strap with cutout, low stacked heel, and easy slip-on entry. It features a genuine suede upper, padded footbed with a leather top cover, and a leather outsole with a rubberized forefoot and heel that the brand says is for better grip, and it comes in European sizes 40 through 45 as a Simons exclusive designed in Canada and made in Portugal. Note that the lining and sock are synthetic rather than leather, which may matter if you prefer fully natural materials.[4,5] |
