Ravello Crocodile Loafer

$1,037
Color

If you are in between sizes, we recommend sizing down.

Suede takes the gloss out of crocodile. The tiles are still there, square across the vamp and rounder at the sides, but they show as texture and shading rather than reflection, and the colour moves as the nap lies one way or the other.

It slips on, with a band across the instep and a seam running round the apron. It is cut true to size. Cow leather lining, full-grain leather insole, leather sole.

Brown or blue. EU 38 to 46.

Every skin is chosen individually, so no two pieces carry the same pattern.

  • Material: Genuine crocodile leather upper with a suede finish
  • Design: Slip-on loafer with a plain saddle band across the vamp
  • Toe: Almond toe with an apron seam
  • Lining: Cow leather
  • Insole: Full-grain leather
  • Outsole: Leather
  • Heel: Low stacked leather heel
  • Colours: Blue, Brown
  • Sizes: EU 38 to 46

Crocodile scales are horn rather than hide. Heat and direct sun dry them, and a dried tile lifts at the edge and will not lie flat again.

Wipe with a soft dry cloth along the run of the tiles. Blot rain rather than rubbing it, and let the piece dry in a cool room, never near a radiator or under a hairdryer.

Condition it two or three times a year with a product made for exotic leather, and use less than you think. Wax polish collects in the seams and takes the light out of them.

Keep it in its dust bag, unpressed and unstacked. Anything beyond a wipe is better brought to us.
