Sole: Signature Santoni orange-lacquered leather sole, featuring a stacked heel with a rubber tap for durability and traction. Interior: Fully lined in premium orange leather for a comfortable, breathable fit. Origin: Hand-finished in Italy. Size: 8.5 UK Size & Fit Advice Santoni loafers are built on a refined, generous last. To find your ideal fit, we recommend the following: Generous Sizing: These loafers tend to run large. We typically suggest sizing down by half a size to a full size from your standard sneaker or US dress shoe size. Slip-On Fit: Since there are no laces to tighten, a snug fit initially is preferable as the high-quality leather will stretch and mold to the shape of your foot after a few wears. Our Recommendation: If you usually wear a US 10, a Santoni size 9 or 9.5 (UK 8 or 8.5) will likely provide the best fit. Pro Tip: For the best experience with loafers, ensure there is minimal heel slippage when walking, as the leather will naturally soften over time.
