Gold Calf

Our modern take on a classic penny loafer. Handcrafted in a gold calf leather, 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 and cuffed jeans to long skirts and dresses.

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% leather in gold calf.
  • 100% calf leather lined.
  • Leather notched welt.
  • 0.75" flared leather stacked heel with sueded sole
  • In an effort to be less wasteful and keep your shoes looking good, we applied a thin film to the sole. Please remove and recycle prior to making these yours. If you plan to return, please ensure film is in tact.

This material may feel snug when you first put them on. This is normal as they begin to soften and form to your foot. Before you know it, they will become your everyday favorite.

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

Our tumbled and smooth calf leathers are very high quality and, with proper care, should last for years.

Calf is a durable leather but is still susceptible to marks with wear. To protect the leather, gently wipe the product with a soft, damp cloth and dry the leather immediately after, away from direct heat and sunlight. Then, apply a leather protection cream or wax. Please test the cleaner on a small portion of your shoe to ensure there won't be discoloration before applying all over. We advise against using any cleaning products containing solvents which affect the leather's surface finishing. Also, avoid colored creams. We recommend cleaning periodicially 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.

    Cute loafers!

    These loafers are so cute! The metallic gold is on trend while the loafer style makes them a classic. They were super tight at first. Had to use a shoe horn to put them on. But after wearing around the house with socks, they were good to go. Went with my regular shoe size.

    Rated 5 out of 5 stars
    Great Loafer

    Really great loafer. Sizing was hard, my usual 7 hurt when I tried them on, leather is stiff and I didn't think I could get them broken in, so I exchanged for a 7.5 and now the right shoe slips a little at the heel. I kept the 7.5 and will add an insert.

    ELBA PENNY LOAFER 8.5 / Espresso Suede With Hardware
    Rated 5 out of 5 stars
    Perfect. Perfect. Perfect!

    If you can find the color you want in your size, don't wait. Grab them. These are everywhere, but Freda is the only place that does this loafer, right? It's chunky but not overly so. It is a perfect fit (take your usual size), has flexible suede, and is the ideal size coin in the slot on top. Like many others following the trend, I took the chocolate suede brown color as soon as my size was available.

    Elba Penny Loafer

    Excellent! My third pair. I have to use inserts due to having narrow feet. I hope to purchase more. Please, if possible add the light blue again.
