Why 80% off?
For years we made shoes the same way — cut, lasted and finished by hand, built to be resoled instead of replaced. We never chased a season and we never cut a corner to hit a price. We are closing our doors, and every pair still on the shelf leaves at a fraction of what it cost to make. When a size is gone, it is gone — these lasts will not be cut again. Not a promotion. A farewell on our own terms.
Description
The Ivy Loafer is inspired by old-school Ivy style. Its slightly boxier shape and relaxed profile set it apart from our flagship Penny Loafer, giving it a sporty, enduring silhouette. A shorter vamp and 360-degree welt reinforce the collegiate influences at the heart of its design.

Fit & sizing
Fits true to size – take your usual size
If you are between two sizes, take the larger one — leather softens and moulds to your foot within the first week.
Care
- Rotate between wears and insert the shoe trees after use to retain shape and minimise creasing.
- Use a shoe horn when putting them on and take them off by hand to protect the heel.
- Brush or wipe the leather upper after wear to remove dust and light surface marks.
- Clean with a leather cleaner when needed, then apply a thin layer of cream or polish if the leather looks dry.
- Let the sole dry at room temperature if it becomes damp and keep away from direct heat.
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

How to measure your feet
1. Wear the socks you usually pair with these shoes.
2. Place your foot on a sheet of paper and trace its outline.
3. Measure from the heel to the longest toe with a ruler.
4. Match your measurement to the table and adjust for foot shape. The CM and inch values correspond to your foot's length, not the shoe's internal length.
Adjust for foot shape
– Normal: choose the size closest to your measurement.
– Wide and/or high instep: choose a full size larger than your nearest measurement.
– Narrow: choose the size closest to your measurement.

The suede
A matte finish that forgives
Brushed suede has a soft, matte surface that hides the small marks of daily wear. Rain spots and scuffs brush out, the nap does not flatten into shine, and the upper does not peel where it bends. Made to look relaxed and right for years.
The shape
A little boxier, a little more casual
The toe is slightly squarer and the strap across the front sits a touch lower, which gives this loafer an easy weekend look with jeans or chinos. The stitching runs all the way around the sole, so the outline stays true for years.
Henry Xford · Closing
This pair is made for the last time.
We are closing the workshop, and there is no restock. When this size sells out, it is gone for good.
The shop is still open. Every order still ships, free, anywhere in the world.
What our customers say
Real photos from our customers
Booked a table, threw them on with a blazer and jeans. Sleek toe shape is what sold me.
slip-on is exactly the point. Took two seconds and looked right with dark denim at lunch.
Used them on an airport run and they were simple the whole way. Slip-on loafers make security less of a headache.
The second colour is the one I kept reaching for. Works with denim, but still sits fine under tailoring.
at the restaurant terrace, the loafers sat low and neat with trousers. Little snug at first, then fine.
The horsebit pair at the bookshop felt solid and easy. Bit of break-in, but nothing annoying.
Getting out of the car, these still looked sharp with a suit. No laces, no messing around.
Morning at home, no fuss at all. Just stepped in, grabbed coffee, and the penny strap detail looks clean.
