what the style is:

Butterfly Loafer

With origins in bespoke British shoemaking, butterfly loafers are a modern reinterpretation of the classic penny loafer: The single penny strap is replaced with two straps, whose interlocking shape resembles a butterfly.

what it's lasted on:

TMG Last

The TMG is our smart round last. Its subtle shape ensures an elegant look on any style of shoe, and its versatility enables you to wear it anywhere from the boardroom to date night.

The TMG is a classic medium-fitting last:
-Standard Forefoot
-Standard instep
-Good for medium-sized feet
-Non-elongated last

what you'll be standing on:

Leather Sole (Closed Channel)

Single leather soles are our most handsome sole option. A subtle profile combines with tastefully pitched heels, beveled waists, and closed-channel stitching to ensure an elegant look, while seven brass nails in the toe improve longevity.

size guidance

As a standard rule for our loafers, we cut them more snugly compared to our laced shoes in the same size.

For our Meridian, on the TMG Last, we recommend that most gentlemen stick with the same size as their laced shoes. The exception is if you wear your laced shoes without room to spare, in which case we recommend you take a half size up. We do not recommend you size down on the Meridian unless you have a very slender foot with a very low instep.

Similar in sizing to the Carmina Uetam loafer and Crockett & Jones Cavendish.

Length: Standard
Width: Standard
Instep: Snug/Standard
Toe Box: Standard
Last shape: Classic round

Extraordinary Loafers Extraordinary Service

The last shape is so elegant and the suede is beautiful. I will definitely be getting more of these loafers in different color suede and in leather. The proactive customer service was extraordinary. They proactively contacted me to talk about sizing—they noticed I had sized down from my prior orders and were concerned about fit. I ended up getting size guidance from Justin himself. They adjusted the size of the shoe order and they fit perfectly.

Sensational Shoes

These shoes are sensational with each step. My tuxedo was made more beautiful because of them. Thank you, J.FitzPatrick.
