The loafer holds a power most shoes can only dream of. It is the footwear of the pulled-together man; a sartorial shortcut to subversive sophistication; the unspoken handshake of true adulthood. Slip into a pair of these and suddenly, you're not just walking, you're strutting with a silent declaration that says, "I've got this life thing figured right out.”

Yes, the loafer is a powerful shoe that can simultaneously make you look classier, edgier, and probably richer than you really are.
