These are aversion of the very popular “Prince” tassel loafer, with the addition of the fringe and weave detail on the front. They are an absolute classic in terms of style, and have all the correct details just like the ones that we wore “back in the day”.
These shoes really evoke memories of the Ska and Two Tone days, where you would see countless people wearing them. The leather sole makes them excellent purchase if dancing is important for you, we are thinking “Northern Soul” in particular
The shoes are all leather including leather sole . In terms of the styling, they have been faithfully recreated from an original model from the early 80’s
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 leather in an Oxblood mix colour
Sizes 6 – 12
Also in Black.
