Pick your size to see when your pair will arrive
Long, lean, a slight chisel toe: the 722 last makes a black penny loafer arrive sharper. A leather strap, a clean slot, no laces, in black calfskin on a last that runs long and lean with a slight chisel toe. The upper is top-grade European calfskin, finished smooth for an even depth that takes a hard shine. What sets this version apart is the 722 last: the sleekest line in the range, sharper and more contemporary than the rounder 675 — on a penny loafer, a read that's European and deliberate. The Smith is made by our artisans in a workshop in Almansa, Goodyear welted, one pair at a time. A full leather sole keeps it at its dressiest.
The same slip-on ease, a more considered silhouette. Put it under a suit, gray trousers, or dark denim — the black Smith on the 722 is the loafer for the man who wants the easy shoe to also be the sharp one.
Some loafers ask permission to enter a room. The Smith doesn't — and on the 722, it arrives faster.

Toe shape: Chisel · Fit: Snug · Sizing: True to size
The shoe reads long, stretched, and sharp. The chisel toe draws an almost horizontal line at the front of the shoe — it doesn't end in a point or a curve, but in a clean, straight edge that gives a very modern and deliberate silhouette. From the instep to the floor, the last communicates intent: this is a shoe that wants to be noticed.
The lateral profile is low and taut. There is no volume in the toe box — the last tapers gradually toward the front without inflating the cap. The result is a shoe that looks even slimmer than it measures, with that visual elongation that makes the foot appear longer and more elegant.
Ideal if you're looking for presence without excess: a shoe that enters the room before you do.
A penny loafer is the slip-on that dresses up.
A leather strap crosses the vamp with a small cut-out slot in the middle — the slot that once held a coin and gave the shoe its name — and everything else is kept slim and low. No laces, no hardware, no fuss.
Worn with tailored trousers it is nearly as dressy as a derby; worn with chinos in July it is the most comfortable correct shoe there is.
Ours are Goodyear welted, which is unusual in a loafer and the reason the shape holds instead of collapsing after a season of being pulled on and kicked off.
A leather sole is the dressiest way to finish a shoe, and the reason a good pair reads as a good pair from across the room. It is thin where a rubber sole is thick, so the shoe keeps the line the last gave it instead of adding bulk under the foot.
Leather breathes, takes the shape of the way you walk within a few wears, and can be replaced when it finally goes — this is a sole built to be renewed, not discarded.
It is quieter on a hard floor than anything else we make, and it is the sole to choose when the occasion is formal and the day is dry.
