@Cobbler Union

Hello guys,
I really like the Smith loafers but I do not commit to buy because of the sole.
Is there any particular reason for this style to have an open channel and pretty basic sole while your other styles have a beautiful and more refined sole ?


Hi!
Thanks for your question.

The main reason is to offer both open and closed channel soles in our collection so customers have options. We think not closing the channel in the loafers of our collection makes sense as they are not as classic as oxfords, derbies or monks.

Hope this helps.

I agree it makes sense. But at the same price point, wouldnt that make your loafers lesser Q/P ratio ?
