Tassel loafer Goodwood

Permanent Collection

The prodigy of the (large) family of loafers (bit, penny, driving…), here is the tassel loafer.

If (and that would be terrible) you had to keep only one pair of shoes in your closet, it would undoubtedly be this one.

It’s a piece that has become as basic and iconic as jeans or a white shirt: defying preconceptions, the tassel loafer has firmly established itself on the other side of the river, far from the noisy vagaries of fashion, as a timeless style.

Why? Because it’s an easy, obvious style, loved by the (d/v)ieux, adopted by the young—one that belongs to no one and no particular style, playful with its little twirling leather tassels, a style you can endlessly reinterpret, hate, and then—actually, I love it. A shoe that enhances your look.

“For resort and in-town wear,” read the advertisements of yesteryear about the Pampille.

In other words, absolute versatility: just as smart with swim shorts and a soft-knit polo shirt after a swim in the sea as it is with flannel and a tie for a meeting at the top of a skyscraper in the business district, come winter.

Of course, we’d rather imagine a gentle spring, the beautiful summer ahead. And then set off… far away. Pack the three fresh, colorful versions of our Goodwood—in suede calfskin with a light-colored welt—into your suitcases, with the sole vacation plan of switching them out throughout the day, at your leisure, just for fun: noise

– Insert raw wooden shoe trees into your shoes as soon as you take them off: they absorb moisture and preserve the integrity and shape of the shoe.

– Use a shoehorn for your comfort and to protect the shoe’s heel counter.

– Rotate your pairs of shoes as much as possible, as leather needs to dry properly to remain supple and keep its shape. Never leave your pair near a source of heat or humidity.

– Regularly wipe your pair with a dry cloth or give them a quick brush.

– Use Saphir Médaille d’Or lotion every five to ten wears. It cleans and nourishes the leather: this is essential and regular maintenance. Saphir Médaille d’Or Pommadier cream (neutral or the color of the shoe) is a complementary, more nourishing treatment.

– Once your shoes are clean and hydrated, apply a little Saphir Médaille d’Or shoe polish to provide extra protection and a glossy finish. Finally, buff using a chamois cloth or a soft-bristled brush.

– For a mirror shine (glacage), emulsify by alternating layers of polish and fine droplets of water, only on the rigid parts of the shoe. This process requires time and precision. Run a nylon, wool, or cashmere stocking over a finished mirror shine.
