Our nappa shoes are made from a soft, Italian nappa and flexible leather soles. Nappa leather is permeable, so avoid exposure to water and rain. To maintain the sheen and finish over time, you can use a quality leather lotion.

Liked the leather and silhouette enough to keep

"The shape and style of this loafer is unlike anything else I’ve been able to find. When the shoes arrived, I was really impressed with how buttery and soft the leather was. My only complaints would be 1) the sole is not supportive and 2) the stitching in the back of the shoe is not covered and can rub against the heel. That said, I liked these loafers enough to keep them. I ended up taking them to a cobbler to add some traction to the thin sole and add some padding to the heel stitching."

best and most comfortable shoes

"not only are these shoes the most comfortable shoes like slippers. they are beautiful looking and very well made. the perfect combination! will definitely be buying more margaux shoes."

Alex E. (5/5)

Iconic

"I am obsessed with these loafers. I originally bought another brand’s for nearly twice the price but wasn’t convinced by the quality. Then these came out. They’re now my favorite shoes I’ve ever owned. Incredibly soft but seem like they’ll last forever? Thank you for this magic."

The Sleek New James Loafer

"If finally feels so good to slip my foot into a loafer that is actually narrow enough to stay on my foot and allow me to walk property. I had to size down a whole size to accomplish my goal but it worked and I walked all over my living room carpet. Margaux has landed! So I ordered a pair of sandals to go with them and it was success again. Finally a really narrow shoe. Thank you!!!!♥️"

Sue R. (5/5)

Soft leather, no structure

"While this is exceptional quality, I do not see how someone could wear these for the distance advertised. They are quite flat with little support."

Morgan T. (3/5)

Perfect loafer

"Super soft leather and great for long walks. I love the leather sole and did not feel the need to have them covered in rubber. A tad tight on my Achilles on the larger foot, but I think they will be fine in the long term."

Vivian S. (5/5)

Beautiful loafers

"These Cedar Suede loafers are really nice. Beautiful in fact. I loved them. I have extremely narrow feet that are so difficult to find shoes that fit well. I have the Demi Mary Jane in leopard and the Marlowe loafers. Both are greats fits in 38. 5 Narrow. Unfortunately the James loafer were a little bit wider for my feet and I was not able to keep them. I would never have sent them back had they fit."

Janet B. (5/5)

Love these loafers

Cindy M. (5/5)

Dascher B. (5/5)
