Penny loafer Newport

Permanent collection

Oh this long-awaited, much desired loafer is finally here!

Let’s pamper this impeccably cut, well-balanced, generously strapped penny loafer, a beautiful rounded nose (the last 275, a very american inspired roundness that you’ll find on our Goodwood!).

A shoe for summer and winter, for spring too … or for fall, otherwise.

Indeed, the Newport will go round the calendar as easily as it will of your wardrobe, for many happy combinations to come, marrying perfectly cashmere pants, Prince of Wales or tennis stripes, linen chinos… even shorts, in the hot heart of summer.

Our Newport is the obvious penny loafer we’ve all been waiting for. Cool, calm, collected.

Destined to become a classic of the Malfroid collection (which will serenely continue to grow) because it embodies a spirit we cherish : flexibility, versatility of masculine style, smart, relaxed & chic.

– 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.

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

– Regularly wipe your shoes with a dry cloth or give them a quick brushing.

– Use Saphir Médaille d’Or lotion every five to ten wears. It cleans and nourishes the leather: this is an essential and regular maintenance step. Saphir Médaille d’Or Pommadier cream (neutral or in the color of the shoe) is a complementary treatment that provides deeper nourishment.

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

– For a mirror shine (glazing), emulsify by alternating layers of wax polish and tiny drops of water, on the rigid parts of the shoe only. This operation requires time and precision. Run a nylon, wool, or cashmere stocking over a finished glaze.
