Tan Tassel Loafer
A tan tassel loafer which you can wear to the office, out on the town or chilling by the seaside. A most wearable slip-on shoe which has all the characteristics of being formal. Yet you can easily create an easy going style. There is lovely detail in the woven panel contrasted with the dark brown trim. This is topped off with a tassel.
History of the Tassel Loafer
The look is debonair and this is no coincidence. A little know actor called Lucas in the 1930s (who was very debonair) first came up with the idea of a tassel on a slip-on shoe. He bought a pair of oxford shoes with tassels on the laces. Lucas wanted a design featuring the tassels button a different way. It was the Alden shoe company who eventually came up with the genius of adding them to a slip on rather than reserving them for actual laced shoes. So the elegant timeless and versatile tassel loafer was born. See here for more history of the tassel loafer.
