Wildsmith Model 98 mens loafers in black calf (second)

Model 98 is the original loafer that was first made for King George the VI by the Wildsmith family giving the brand a place in history. Now we have a new iteration for the modern era that uses some of those heritage details but also embraces the new. The sole is Blake-stitched for extra flexibilty, there is a padded insock and the model number and size is hand-written in a diamond-shaped pane inside the shoe. In addition to these details, the collar has the diamond brogueing along with a subtle stip up the heel. Model 98 is an iconic shoe brought up to date for a new audience.

The Wildsmith brand has been around since 1847 and this heritage is a strong influence to the modern interpretations we are proud to be stocking.
