Limited Edition
Cognac Calf with Shearling
Quantity:

The coziest penny loafer. Made by hand with cognac calf, the ELBA updates the timeless style with our signature notched welt, angled leather heel and a super-soft natural shearling upper. 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 cognac calf. This tannery is rated Leather Working Group Silver. Leather Working Group is a tool to evaluate the environmental performance of leather goods manufacturers.
  • The apron is 100% sheep shearling which is ethically sourced and organically raised.
  • 100% Calf leather upper and sock lining.
  • Leather notched welt.
  • 0.75" flared leather stacked heel with sueded leather 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 intact.

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 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.

    The best loafers you will ever have

    These loafers are perfection, they look beautiful (the slanted heel is so cool), the craftsmanship is impeccable, and they’re comfortable straight out of the box. It’s my second pair, and not the last one ! The customer service is also outstanding, Genie was so efficient and helpful. Truly an outstanding brand.

    Beauty and comfort!

    The prettiest loafer and while they’re a bit stiff at first they quickly become the most comfortable shoes. Super happy with them.

    ELBA PENNY LOAFER 8.5 / Espresso Suede With Hardware
    Rated 5 out of 5 stars
    Incredible - wish i purchased sooner!!

    I have been searching for a loafer for ages and finally bit the bullet and purchased these, and I am so glad I did!! They fit perfectly, are comfortable out of the box & are made beautifully. I have struggled so much finding loafers that look good and are comfortable, and these fit the bill immediately. No blisters on the first wear!! 10/10.

    Do look at the size chart though because I am a narrow 39 and got an 8.5 and they fit really well -- slightly snug but the suede will definitely relax a little with wear. Love
