We recently created this beautiful tradtional Beefroll Penny Loafer as a sample for Beams Japan. They are using it to feature in their 35th anniversary press book. Unlined Horween shell cordovan, natural leather soles,  The color shown is Saddle - also available in black, Color 8, unglazed dark cognac, and natural. Price is $500, contact me to order a pair - krancourt@rancourtshoes.com

I was in Tokyo recently visiting some of our customers and spent a day with the people at Beams. I love the Beams + stores, they do a great job merchandising and offer a great variety of casual and rugged clothing. Here are some pictures from that day. You'll probably recognize some of our shoes. Thanks to Kenny, Taka and Alex for showing me around.

Also, check out Masa Sakurai's bags - Arts & Crafts (pictures included). The bags are great, he's not a bad tour guide either.
