Mocassins habillés homme

Shop men's formal loafers for suits, weddings and the office, handcrafted in polished leather, suede and croc-embossed finishes. A good formal loafer is a smart, comfortable alternative to lace-up oxfords, and it moves easily from work to evening.

Choosing a formal loafer

• Black leather is the most formal choice and works with navy, grey and black suits. Try the Classic onyx black penny loafer or the black loafers with silver horsebit.
• Bit loafers add a refined metal detail, such as the black leather and suede bit loafers.
• Croc-embossed loafers suit black-tie events and evening wear, like the black crocodile-embossed loafers.

Loafers with a suit

Choose a slim, polished loafer and wear it with fine dress socks that match your trousers. Keep the trouser hem short enough to show a little of the shoe. Dark colours look sharpest with tailoring; save suede and lighter shades for smart-casual outfits.

Black or brown?

Black loafers are the safest choice for black, charcoal and navy suits and for evening events. Dark brown is slightly more relaxed and pairs best with navy, grey and blue tailoring. If you only buy one formal pair, choose black polished leather.

Fit and care

Formal loafers should hold your heel firmly without slipping. Polish smooth leather regularly, use shoe trees to keep the shape and give each pair a day off between wears.
