Waitlist
Our modern take on a classic penny loafer. Handcrafted in a hickory embossed croc, the ELBA updates the timeless style with our signature notched welt and angled leather heel. We’ll live in these loafers with everything from oversized suits, to cuffed jeans and socks to long skirts.

Our shoes are made from the highest quality leather which will last season after season. Leather is a natural material and will give with wear.

  • 100% Italian leather in hickory embossed croc. This tannery is rated Leather Working Group Gold. Leather Working Group is a tool to evaluate the environmental performance of leather goods manufacturers. 
  • Leather lined
  • 0.75" flared heel with leather sole
  • Leather and rubber split chip heel cap for enhanced durability

This material may feel snug when you first put them on. This is normal as they will need a little breaking in to make them yours. Before you know it, the leather will take the shape of your foot and become your everyday favorite. We suggest wearing them with socks around the house until they soften.

  • Fitting true to size
  • ELBA is the last used for this loafer. Learn more about lasts here.

Our croc and snake leathers are embossed and printed on a calf leather base. Thicker leather is required to create this embossing, making it more susceptible to peeling or chipping. Please handle with care as any damage cause to the print cannot be restored. Due to this technique, there may be variation in color and placement of the print. This variation is intentional and part of our sustainable ethos to avoid leather wastage.

To clean, gently wipe with a soft, damp, lint-free cloth and dry immediately away from direct heat and sunlight. Please test the cleaner on a small portion of your shoe to ensure no discoloration before applying all over. We advise against using any cleaning products, as they will damage the leather. We recommend cleaning periodically or as needed to keep your FRĒDAs looking brand new.

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.

    Where have these been??

    I have tried every penny loafer out there and they were always too narrow and uncomfortable to the point I couldn't break them in. I ordered two pairs and I put them on out of the box and they were already comfortable and I know they will get better with time. If you struggle to find penny loafers that are not too narrow, do yourself a favor and buy these. They are perfection!

    Power Loafer

    I had a meeting with a fancy attorney so to counter with a more casual look just to be cool I wore my Fredas. During the tedious times I kept looking down to admire my Elba loafers and kept thinking they looked so refined, and felt so good too! Felt very confident. A good loafer does that. Thank you Freda Salvador!

    Note: it took some wearing at home to break them in a bit. My feet are wide - at first I thought it wasn’t going to be my fit but now they’re just perfect.
