Product Insights
The Simons Suede Penny Loafers, made in Spain's Elche cluster using machine efficiency and hand-finishing, offer better fit and durability at $169 CAD—about one-fifth the cost of a Carmina loafer—but use non-resoleable construction. They fit whole EU sizes 36–41 with half-inch toe space and minimal heel slip, featuring a foam footbed with leather topcover and textured rubber outsole that matches LL Bean's VertiGrip for grip and durability. The suede upper lightens at the vamp crease and molds to the foot with wear, requires brushing and waterproofer, and the rubber sole creates a relaxed everyday silhouette while providing better grip, moisture resistance, and low maintenance for daily urban walking.
Verified claims
- Craftsmanship
- Combines machine efficiency with hand-finishing in the Elche cluster for better fit and durability.
- Price context
- At $169 CAD, one-fifth a Carmina loafer, via non-resoleable construction.
- Construction
- Made in Spain's Elche cluster, costing about one-fifth of Carmina's loafer.
- Fit
- Fit these whole EU sizes 36–41 by testing for half-inch toe space and minimal heel slip.
- Outsole
- Foam footbed with leather topcover and textured rubber outsole provide cushioning and wet traction.
- Competitive positioning
- Provides traction and durability comparable to LL Bean's VertiGrip mini-lug outsole.
- Aging
- Suede lightens at the vamp crease and molds to the foot with wear.
- Care
- Suede upper requires brushing and waterproofer spray for stain protection.
- Silhouette
- Rubber sole creates a relaxed, everyday silhouette that avoids the formality of a leather sole.
- Everyday practicality
- Rubber sole offers better grip, moisture resistance, and low maintenance for daily urban walking.
- Break-in period
- The foam footbed with a thin leather topcover provides immediate cushioning without a break-in period.
- Shock absorption
- The cushioned foam core beneath the leather topcover delivers immediate shock absorption for all-day wear.
- Flexible sole
- A reviewer describes the loafer as offering a light, flexible feel with exceptional comfort from the first wear.
- Fit guidance
- For a secure fit, these loafers should leave about a half-inch of toe space and almost no heel movement; because the slip-on cannot be laced tighter, heel security is the critical fit check.
- Arch support
- One buyer returned these loafers due to insufficient arch support, finding not enough support under the plantar arch.
- Sizing
- Sizing runs inconsistent versus the brand's size chart: one size 9 buyer found the recommended 39 far too small and needed a 40, while another found 39 too large for a 7.5.
- Width
- Some buyers find the width snug at first and suggest sizing up or expecting suede to stretch with wear.

Office and business-casual days
These suede penny loafers suit office or business-casual settings, where reviewers report the premium leather and classic penny loafer silhouette give a professional, timeless look. Keep in mind the polished appearance can feel too dressy for ultra-casual relaxed weekends, per one reviewer.[2]
For busy mornings and daily errands
These suede penny loafers suit quick trips and daily commuting, thanks to their easy slip-on design. Reviewers describe all-day comfort from the soft suede, making them a go-to pick for wearing through hours on your feet.[2]
Travel days with light walking
Per an analysis of customer reviews, these slip-on loafers are easy to slip off at airport security and comfortable for short strolls, making them a fit for travel days. The same analysis notes they may not support miles of sightseeing, and that the minimal arch support can be a pain point for wearers who need plantar support.[2]
Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Suede Penny Loafers Made In Spain Women: Choose this if you want a classic suede penny loafer for office or business-casual wear, quick trips, or commuting: reviews highlight soft suede, easy slip-on convenience, and all-day comfort, and the shoe has a leather insole over a foam footbed. Reviewers also praise the Spanish craftsmanship and timeless look, though some found it too polished for ultra-casual weekends. Be aware sizing is inconsistent—running slightly large in length but narrow in width, which can pinch wide or high-volume feet—and the minimal arch support may bother high arches or those needing plantar support.[1,2,3] | Patent Leather Penny Loafers Made In Spain Women: Choose this if you want a timeless patent-leather penny loafer with a subtle sheen that reviewers say pairs easily with work attire, jeans, or semi-formal evening outfits, offering all-day comfort with no break-in. They feature a genuine leather upper, suede lining, padded leather-covered footbed, anti-slip rubber at the heel, a low 2 cm (0.75 inch) heel, and are made in Spain in Black or Burgundy. Note that reviewers consistently report a narrow, slim fit that runs small and won't stretch enough for wide feet—so these suit slim feet best, or size up if you plan to wear socks.[4] | Supple Suede Bit Loafers Made In Portugal Women: Choose this if you want a polished slip-on for office or business-casual wear: reviewers say the refined silhouette with a gold-tone bit elevates outfits, and the exceptionally soft suede and cushioned leather footbed deliver out-of-the-box comfort, though some report blisters after extended wear or barefoot full days, so a gradual break-in with conditioner and no-show socks is advised. Note that many reviewers find the sizing runs a half to full size small with a narrow toe box, so sizing up is recommended, and wide-footed wearers may still find the fit tight; one reviewer also found the hard plastic outsole disappointing next to the premium suede upper.[5,6] |

Ils sont vraiment très confortables

Un style intemporel
Le flâneur penny est l'incarnation même du chic décontracté. Son suède souple épouse la forme du pied comme une seconde peau. Il offre une sensation de légèreté et de flexibilité, garantissant un confort exceptionnel dès le premier usage. Ses finitions sont soignées et son cuir est de qualité supérieure. Enfin, son design classique traverse les saisons sans jamais se démoder. Je recommande vivement cette chaussure.

Belle couleur
Un peu étroit une pointure plus grande aurait été nécessaire. Par contre ce flâneur est très confortable.
Chaussure très confortable
Chaussure à mon goût, très confortable, facile à enfiler, c'est ce qu'il me fallait.
Très belles chaussures
Impeccables et confortables, un produit de qualité. Toutefois, je les ai retournées car j’ai opté pour une chaussure moins habillée.
Pas d’arche
J’ai retourné ces chaussures, pas assez de soutien au niveau de l’arche plantaire
Beautiful soft loafers, weird sizing
I've been looking for comfortable and soft loafers this colour for ages and and very glad to have been able to purchase them from a Canadian company. They seem well-made and are pretty comfy - a bit snug width-wise but I think they will stretch out a bit, being suede. The size chart is misleading, however. I am a size 9 which is usually 40 in European size, but according to their size chart, this is a 39, so that's what I ordered initially. It twas TINY - definitely not a size 9. I returned and re-ordered these in a 40, which fits my size 9 feet appropriately. Most of the time, 40 = size 9 or 9. 5. Not sure why their size chart is suggesting otherwise?
