The ELBA is hand-sewn in our San Salvador, El Salvador, family factory. Our Co-Founder's grandfather started manufacturing shoes 67 years ago, and our hand-sewn Moccasins are produced in a factory that her father started in the 1980s. This factory is one of the last hand-sewn moccasin factories in the world—a true testament to artisanal craftsmanship and passing down this skill from generation to generation.

These loafers are beautiful and well made. Right now they are less comfortable as they need to break in, but I really like them and I’m sure they will get softer over time

Absolutely love them! The quality is so beautiful and they are comfortable right out of the box. I am between a 9 and 9.5 and went with the 9 and they fit perfectly! I had been waiting to buy them and am so glad I pulled the trigger.

I purchased these loafers in black spazzolato leather last year, and they are still not broken in and comfortable to wear. As others have noted, these shoes are very stiff around the heels and ankle, and even wearing socks does not help. I’d expect a lot more for shoes at this price point.
