'There’s memory foam throughout the footbed that cushions every step. Now that I’ve been able to fly again, I found them to be a breeze when you’re going through airport security'
The author, once again comfortable after playing tennis. Photo: Chadner Navarro I’ve been wearing loafers for as long as I can remember. In fact, my parents have a photo of me, at 11, tramping around a New Jersey mall wearing a pair of black leather penny loafers with white mid-calf socks and a cartoon T-shirt tucked into Cub Scouts khaki shorts. I’ve ditched the cartoon tees since then, but my love for loafers has only grown — and to near-uncontrollable proportions.
As someone who traveled a lot for work, I was immediately taken by the idea that these unlined, soft Italian suede shoes would occupy very little space in my carry-on when travel was finally a thing again. I enjoy how the shape is narrower, giving it a slightly dressier silhouette without being witchy-pointy. The heel counter folds down, too, so you can also rock them as mules. This makes them even easier to put on than regular loafers, which already don’t require much.
I shouldn’t be surprised at how well they’ve performed and held up. The founders of Wolf & Shepherd were both track athletes in college, and so they tried to make footwear that offers the type of comfort that you find in your favorite pair of running shoes. Yes, we have all seen “dressy shoes” outfitted with tech-forward soles that are supposed to make you feel like you’re walking on air.
