James Penny Loafer Burnished

DESCRIPTION
  • The loafer style dates back to Norway in the early 1930s.
  • Taking inspiration from the moccasin shoes worn by native Americans in North America, and the simple slip-ons on the feet of Norwegian fishermen, the first design was born.
  • Popularity grew and export orders were sent across Europe and America.
  • Esquire magazine even featured an article with photographs of Norwegian farmers wearing the shoe in cattle loafing sheds.
  • Soon after, the Spaulding family of New Hampshire, USA, began manufacturing a similar shoe, called the Loafer.
  • This name later became a generic term used to describe a slip-on, moccasin shoe.
  • In 1934, G.
  • H.
  • Bass made his first version of the loafer which he called Weejuns.
  • This appears to be a play on words on the origin of the original designer.
  • A distinctive feature of this new design was a strip of leather stitched across the saddle of the shoe, featuring a shaped cutout.
  • In 1950s America before trainers were invented, the Weejun became the shoe of choice for young men and students.
  • It became fashionable to keep a dime in the half moon cut out slot of the leather strip.
  • This eventually gave the shoes their colloquial name of Penny Loafer, which is still used today.
