Our modern take on a classic penny loafer. Handcrafted in a bold herb spazzolato, 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 herb spazzolato. This tannery is rated Leather Working Group Registered and leather contains no PFAs. Leather Working Group is a tool to evaluate the environmental performance of leather goods manufacturers.
  • 100% Calf leather lined.
  • Notched leather welt
  • Leather sueded sole
  • 0.75" leather-stacked flared heel

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.

  • The length of this style is running slightly long. If you are narrow or in between sizes, we recommend 1/2 sizing down.
  • ELBA is the last used for this boot. Learn more about lasts here.

This leather is a high shine, full-grain leather that achieves it's luster and depth of color after a great deal of brushing by hand and polishing wheels. It's a very durable leather and easy to maintain, but is still susceptible to marks as you begin to wear. To clean, wipe dirt or other spills off the leather with a damp cloth, then pat dry. Spazzolato requires only an occasional polish with a cloth or light leather conditioner. 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.

See the factory.

    Rated 5 out of 5 stars
    Chic & took one day to break in

    I have really sensitive feet (two foot surgeries) so buying new shoes is an ordeal that I try to avoid as much as possible. I was finally convinced to purchase these after seeing a Reel where a woman styled them 29702384 different ways and they looked incredible with every outfit. I got them in the mail, wore them every day for 5 days and two days in they were super comfortable. Have received countless compliments and am so happy with my purchase.

    ELBA PENNY LOAFER 9 / Black Spazzolato
    Rated 5 out of 5 stars
    Excellent quality and comfort

    I purchased these shoes to wear at work because I wanted something I could wear with socks that were not boots. I usually wear between a size 9 and 10. I originally purchased a size 9 after reading the reviews but when I received them they felt tight so I exchanged for a 9.5. With these I felt my heel slip so I exchanged again for a size 9. I took a chance with these after reading the reviews but I did feel that they stretched to my foot and ended up being very comfortable to wear all day at work. The heels do not slip at all. The exchange process was very easy. I hope this review helps others with the sizing.

    Gorgeous shoes

    These were a gift to my daughter on her 44th birthday. She is a busy career woman, wife, and Mom. She has yet to wear them but was thrilled with the gift.

    Love!

    I’m so happy with these loafers! I originally ordered my normal size of 7.5. They slipped a lot on the heel, so I had to size down to a 7. This size fits a lot better. I now want them in every color!
