I think it’s just a harder color to pull off. I think the Açaí is prob the most underrated colorway.
Açaí is definitely underrated for sure. Got a chance to see it in person and sort of regret not getting it for the price I saw.

The 3 restocked hemis (honey, paloma, speedway) pretty much get all the shine, but açaí,elderberry, and gobi are all ?.

Disclaimer- I do really love honey, paloma, and speedway though lol.

Speedway loafers came in today. They’ll get a lot of use and were a heck of a deal.

Quality is pretty good, leather is very crease prone compared to some other loafers and a couple deep creases have formed after about 10 minutes of wear in the house. I like vintage and patina, so fine with me, but something to consider if you’re a pristine kinda guy.

Sized down one and they are comfortably snug. Probably could have pulled off TTS, but not sure TTS is really even a thing. Shoe either fits or it doesn’t. Disclaimer: my sizing advice is probably irrelevant as sizing down is rarely a perfect solution for me when recommended.

One thing that would make them even better would be a canvas-esque lining similar to the Gucci 1953 loafer. Makes them very comfortable for sockless wear and helps reduce hot spots.

Overall, happy with them and would definitely recommend for a versatile shoe (especially on sale).
