Men's Dark Brown Tassel Loafers
4.8 / 5 (124 reviews)Product Details
Men's dark brown tassel loafers, Goodyear welted on a leather sole and made to your foot measurements. Sizes 5 to 16.5, standard or custom width.
Through lace or applied trim
A traditional tassel loafer has one continuous leather lace running through a row of punched holes around the throat, with a tassel finished onto each end. The lace can be drawn out and a new one threaded in, so tassels become a consumable part. The shortcut is an applied trim, a strip of leather stitched flat onto the throat, which makes the tassels permanent.
Suede or calf, and which brown
Suede has an open nap that feels broken in from the first wear and reads more casual. Box calf takes a polish, holds a crease more sharply, and dresses up further. Ask which this is before ordering.
How these are built
Goodyear welted, hand stitched, on a leather sole with a flat waist. Standard width, can be customised on request.
How this fails
Two failures, both at the tassels. The cords fray where they emerge from the knot, and the leather at the tassel tips scuffs pale. Do not kick loafers off with the other foot. Use a shoehorn going in and take them off by hand. Work a little neutral cream into the tassel leather.
How formal is a tassel loafer
More formal than most people assume. In American business dress the tassel loafer became a professional shoe worn with suits. With a soft suit or a sports coat, a dark brown tassel loafer works anywhere. With black tie, no.
Sizing
Most loafers run large relative to lace ups, so expect to take less than your lace up size. Suede stretches more than calf, so order snug rather than comfortable. Send us your measurements.
FAQ
Can the tassels on a loafer be replaced?
Only if the lace is threaded through the throat rather than stitched on top. A through threaded lace can be drawn out and replaced. An applied trim is permanent.
Are tassel loafers more formal than penny loafers?
By convention in American business dress, yes. In European tailoring both sit as soft tailoring shoes.
Should I size down in loafers?
Usually, relative to your lace up size, because a loafer has nothing to tighten.
Size & Fit

Belt Size
If you choose a matching belt, select your waist size in inches. For a custom belt size, select “Custom Size” and add details in Customization Notes.
Leather Care
Use soft cloth, avoid direct water exposure, and store shoes with shoe trees for better shape retention.
