This is “the original” loafer. We developed, introduced and patented the style and term “loafer” in the early 1930’s. It is just one of the many products that always has and always will set Nettleton apart from the rest. The hallmark of this shoe is the exquisite design, sophisticated lines and the expert craftsmanship required to make such an icon in the history of footwear.
