Loafers Chunky Sole Black

These are my new favourite shoes in our men's collection. Classic penny loafer uppers meet chunky outsoles.

They instantly lift any classic or casual ensemble with a modern twist. Pair them with straight-leg blue jeans and a crisp white button-down shirt. Style them with black skinny jeans and a leather jacket for an edgier look, or match them with black drawstring trousers paired with a black short-sleeve shirt to create a sleek, monochrome look that's both stylish and comfortable.

The Italian vegan leather uppers (made with our signature 69% bio-based content) have been turned over and stitched on all the edges for a clean finish.

All our footwear is hand burnished at the factory as the final step before being wrapped in non-treated brown paper and then placed in their box. You can easily maintain the shine and colour using regular polish.

You can wear these loafers all day and for long distances in comfort. The solid TR outsoles (4cm heel height with a 2cm platform at the front) have excellent traction with the deep lugs, absorbing shock as you walk. They are hard-wearing and will last a long time without wearing down because of their depth.

Inside are stitched deep and squishy insoles made with memory foam and recycled content. They are lined with tan vegan suede, which makes them super comfy for your feet and allows air to circulate inside, helping them stay cool and dry.

We finished them with a WVS emboss underneath the outsole.

Will's Vegan Store launched in 2012 as a vegan shoe company. Since then, they've moved into fashion and other products as well.

The brand continuously reflects on it's operations to see where they can do better. 

Eco-friendly: The majority of items are made from vegan leather alternatives. Some are still plastic-based (PU/PE), but since 2017 they've introduced more biobased and recycled materials into their vegan leather. They have created a sneaker that's fully biodegradable and are certified carbon neutral.

Extra cool is that they have a take back scheme, where you can send back your old shoes to be recycled into outsoles for new Will Vegan's Shoes.

Vegan: As the name suggest, Will's is a completely vegan brand. It's PETA-approved.

Fair & local production: Will's Vegan produces in factories in Portugal and Italy, of which some are part of the Fair Wear Foundation.
