Cetara Crocodile Loafer

$510
Color

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

The tiles run in wide rows across the vamp and step down in size towards the toe, where the skin is polished until it throws back the light. The strap is cut from the same skin and carries the rows over it.

Under the strap the shoe is plain: no lacing, no seam across the vamp. The buckle is small, silver, set to the outside of each shoe.

Cow leather lining and a full grain insole. The outsole is leather, stitched at the edge and stamped underneath. Black or brown, EU 38 to 46.

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

  • Material: Genuine black crocodile leather upper
  • Design: Single monk strap over a slip-on loafer
  • Closure: Slip-on with a buckled monk strap
  • Toe: Tapered almond toe
  • Lining: Cow leather
  • Insole: Full-grain leather
  • Outsole: Stitched leather sole in a red-brown finish
  • Heel: Low stacked leather heel
  • Hardware: Silver-toned square buckle
  • 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.
