WE WANT THE PRINCE !!
That’s what Madness told us in 1979. A classic debut single on Two Tone, and yes it’s why our new Tassel Loafers are called “The Prince”.
We had these shoes developed because I really wanted to reproduce the classic Tassel Loafer, just how I remembered them back in the day. Notice the cutaway where the Tassels are held. Also observe the extra stitching on the band. These are also slightly wider than other makes.
We are extremely pleased with the results you can see here.
SIZING
In terms of sizing they are fairly true to size, if you are between sizes then probably best go down a size. These will grow up to 1/4 of inch after about 6 hours. When trying on please allow 15 mins for your foot to heat the shoes a bit, this will make the leather supple and comfy very quickly.
The soles are leather, the upper is black leather
Sizes 6 – 12
Also in Oxblood.
PLEASE NOTE Some customers have been concerned that the sole of their new Prince looks as if it has been worn. We can assure you that this is not the case. The manufacturer “roughs up” the surface a little, to stop them being too slippery when worn, and prevent the wearer slipping on smooth surfaces.
Mens Sizing
We use the following size conversions. Please be aware that different designs are designed to be bigger than others. We try our best on the product page to mention sizing.
Men’s Sizes
| UK | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 |
| Euro | 40 | 41 | 42 | 43 | 44 | 45 | 46 |
| US | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 |
Please Note that are shoes are made mainly in Spain & Portugal and Euro to UK Conversion means that the shoes normally come up a little big. The reason is that a 43, is more like 9 and 1/4.

Great shoes. Very comfortable.
Can’t fault the shoes.
Delivery was a nightmare the courier didn’t leave them at my house.
And decided to take them to the nearest pick up point…which was in the next county…7 miles away.

O gosh sorry about delivery, pleased you are pleased with shoes :-)

The Prince, cracking pair of shoes, purchased Black in a 7 and they fit like a glove. Good width allowing for slightly wide feet, much better than my usual Bass Weejuns, well padded inner which is great when spending hours on dance floor. They look the DBs.
Another quality item from my go to company lost count of the amount of gear i have purchased from Modshoes and they have never let me down for quality, service, delivery.

I have had this pair of shoes for Months, first time on today, they look good, feel good on my feet as I have wide feet, so pleased with them was looking to order the same size shoes (size 10) in Ox Blood, out of stock, hopefully they will be back in stock soon

Graham Whyte (verified owner) –
The iconic tassel loafer “The Prince” from Mod Shoes is absolutely tip top in all respects.
I was a bit nervous about buying shoes online, however, the “sizing guide” was spot on. I’m in between sizes at 7.5, so I went down to a 7 and the fit is perfect. I stated out with a pair in Oxblood and I was so impressed with the fit and quality, I soon followed up with a second pair in black.
Looking forward to purchasing some other great styles from Mod Shoes.
Richard Coates (verified owner) –
I bought these in black and they are fabulous. Really comfortable and just the look that I was going for. Very good quality and a lovely fit. I took advantage of the buy 2 pairs and get free return to ensure the sizing was right. I’m usually an 8 but ended up with a 7. Great service.

Quality purchase, the reviews don’t lie,will definitely get the Oxblood pair,five *****
LEONARDO OGRADY (verified owner) –
I have written a review about the Burgundy weave tassel loafers. the same applies here. These are great shoes. Nice durable leather souls, the shoes hold their form after wearing rather than creasing or wrinkling. They look amazing have a good masculine width. Can’t recommend this enough- this is an excellent buy. For any mods or Ska boys look no further than here
Chris Punter (verified owner) –
Excellent quality loafers. I’ve always prepared the thicker soles. Better than the big ‘ names’. They look nice and are comfortable. I will be buying other colours.
Mal McDonagh (verified owner) –
Wonderful shoes, fit so well straight out of the box. Will definitely be buying the oxblood. Would recommend.

Bought these for my husbands 65th birthday, he is over the moon with them .they were a bit tight to get on but he said they will give he had a pair of these when he was 15 he also has a pair of comos from the 70t
D. Pilcher (verified owner) –
Great shoe, having followed guidance the fit is as described and wanted, a fantastic replication if my Frank Wright version I owned in the early 70’s the leather is soft , with a great finish. Looking forward to the day I can go out and wear them in earnest. Delivery was problem free.
Paul Grant (verified owner) –
Went for these as I have wide feet, perfect fit, comfortable and really smart, highly recommended service too!
Kane R. (verified owner) –
I wish I’d bought a pair sooner. True to size, they may feel a little tight at first, but as the description mentions, they will stretch slightly, and now mine fit like a glove. Normally with loafers I end up with blisters until I’ve worn them in, but that didn’t happen with these.
This review is 3 months in, still in good shape and looking forward to a long lasting pair of beautiful shoes.
As the soles are smooth leather, they’re a little slippy at first so watch out.
graham brown (verified owner) –
great pair of shoes really good looking well made and comfy
The Farquharson (verified owner) –
Best pair of shoes I’ve bought in some time. Top quality and a very comfortable fit. Put a smile on my face when I put them on.
mark bradley (verified owner) –
I had a pair of loafers several years ago and I was sorry when they finally gave up on me. I could not replace them from the original supplier so considered these from Mod Shoes. I was a bit dubious when I read the sizing information and it mentioned “These will grow up to 1/4 of inch after about 6 hours”. I normally take a size 9 and that’s what I ordered. I really was expecting to be returning them, but I put them on and as advised I wore them on carpet about the house. ( I actually vacuumed around the house. Very 21st century guy me, and I got brownie points from the missus!) while they felt tight over the top of my feet at first, within the hour they were as comfortable as slippers. The next time of wearing; again tight over the top but within minutes totally comfortable. A great pair of shoes which are great for smart dress or jeans. I’ve had them on with both. Now going to get a pair in Ox blood. Can’t rate them highly enough. Buy a pair. Honestly you won’t regret it.

Hi everyone,purchased a pair of ‘The Prince’two years ago.They were delivered well packed,on time.The loafers are made to high standard with first class leather.’The Prince’once on are so comfortable,are far more sturdy than other copies.They look chunky but are light on the feet.They look just so cool with denim jeans,just right with a pair of Mohair trousers and if you are out in a suit magic.’The Prince’ when polished come up to a high gloss and are a real eye catcher.Richie.

Ladies Princes – Oxblood Tassel Loafers.
These loafers are divine! The oxblood colour is stunning and the leather is of the best quality, as is the construction and design of the shoe itself. They are very smart and I feel great wearing them – super comfy too! Top marks from me.
Steve Hayes (verified owner) –
Had a pair of Frank Wright’s back in the early 70’s and they were seldom off my feet. I’ve been looking for something similar to replace them but nothing came quite up to standard, until I saw these. I usually take a 71/2 and was going to order a 7 but not in stock. Went back on the site a couple of days later and as still not in stock, so took a gamble on a 6, They were a little snug at fist but after a couple of hours of just sitting down with my feet in them they have grown to my feet and are now just right. They are superbly comfortable and the finish is excellent. I’ve got the black ones and will be ordering oxblood when they’re back in stock. Can’t speak highly enough of these shoes.
Irene Yague –
perfect to dance Northern Soul, and to wear them during the day
frank newman –
having had a pair of ox blood loafers in the tone tone days which I still have I came across this site and was gobsmacked to see these beautiful all leather loafers I did not hesitate to buy and they are never off my feet the quality and fit is amazing . I did see a review advising to maybe go for the size down due to the very generous fit of these shoes however I ignored and bought the size seven which where slightly to big !!I returned them and was sent a replacement pair in a 6 which fit perfectly there was no hassle no delays the aftersales service was perfect I am now thinking of purchasing a pair of the peaky blinders boots
