Pinch Penny Loafers

I bought these rubber soled loafers mainly for traveling. I wanted one pair of shoes that I could wear sockless with khaki shorts or with a blazer and tie and everything in between, but that would also be comfortable enough to wear while walking around a city all day. These shoes fit the bill very well. I'm quite happy.

They had to make a custom size for me as my size was not in stock, but the at-home size checking kit worked perfectly. One of my feet is larger than the other and I was unsure what size to go with but someone from the company helped clear it up over email and they fit perfectly right out of the box.

The customer service was absolutely stellar! They were wonderful to rush us shoes in time for my husband's birthday and he absolutely loves them. He wore them throughout a lengthy trip to New England last week. Brand new shoes, lots of walking - and they were a dream. This is a great company that produces excellent shoes. Highly, highly recommended.

Shoes fit fantastically (I followed the Rancourt size guide) and were extremely soft and comfortable right out of the box. Only small issue was that the shoe did rub the top of my big left toe when worn for a longer period of time. Otherwise, no issues of rubbing/blistering at all.

This is a pleasant surprise to see such workmanship still exists. Quality leather and stitching, comfortable to wear with or without socks. Great as a driving shoe. Easy to care for finish. Took a while to get them but it was worth the wait. I would like to see this Pinch Penny Loafer style with a traditional sole and heel for more support on the pavement. My only request is that you don't try to change them.

It’s hard to find a Penny that looks appropriate with shorts in a casual setting. This shoe can dress up or down and the leather smells sublime upon opening and for weeks after. The smell is similar to a saddle or boot shop. I wear a 12 in Sperry and an 11.5 in Allen Edmonds and went 12 in these. I measure 13 on a Brannock device. However, these had a touch of room when my foot is cool. If it’s hot out they fit well. I sent them back for an issue with stitching which they were quick to address to ensure satisfaction. They will be adding a full sock liner with foam to help with a more snug fit as I like my loafers to start snug before they stretch. I was amazed at the lightweight feel of these Vs other moccasin style shoes I own. They will be an excellent shoe in the rotation and especially in the more casual environment of current times. I took one star off as a strip of leather on the back of the shoe near the exterior of the heel wasn’t stitched properly which was disappointing for a $200+ Handmade shoe. It’s really not a big deal as they are addressing it.
