A plain-toe black nappa leather loafer with no laces and a height-increasing inner sole — 2.4 inches of total lift, and every half size from a US 6 to a 12.
Highlights
✓
Genuine nappa leather upper, pigskin lining — leather inside and out. Nappa is a soft, smooth finish, so it takes a cream polish and marks more readily than a pebbled one.
✓
Every half size from 6 to 12. On a shoe with no laces to take up slack, a half size is the difference between a secure heel and one that slips — and width is standard D only.
✓
2.4 inches of total height increase — a 1-inch outer heel with a lined height-increasing inner sole carrying the rest.
✓
17 ounces at US 7.5 — light for a leather loafer, and the figure rises with size.
✓
Rubberised bottom on cement construction — the sole is glued, not welted, so unlike a traditional leather loafer it cannot be resoled when it wears through.
CALTO pitches this for relaxed occasions and weekends: a low-top with a 4 1/5-inch shaft that you slide into, with a plain toe that works with chinos and jeans. If you want leather and a slip-on shape with more of a sneaker's look, the pebble grain snoafers sit over a cushioned collar in five colours but offer only three half sizes. This is the one to pick if half-size fit matters more than colour choice.
