Description:
The Tabi Hand-Welted Loafer is the ultimate statement piece for those who move between the worlds of high fashion and street-ready utility. By merging the subversive energy of the split-toe "Tabi" heritage with the timeless structure of a classic penny loafer, we’ve created a silhouette that is both conversational and incredibly versatile. Whether paired with cropped architectural trousers or relaxed, wide-leg denim, these loafers elevate any ensemble with a sense of curated, "accessible luxury" defiance.
Beyond its striking aesthetic, the Tabi Loafer is a testament to the "Wayne Studio" commitment to longevity. Each pair is hand-welted, a labor-intensive process that signifies the pinnacle of footwear construction. The premium black cowhide upper is treated for a deep, obsidian shine that resists the elements, while the interior is swathed in our signature burgundy soft leather. This is not just a shoe for a season; it is a durable companion built to be worn, resoled, and cherished for years to come.
