AK MC hand made Belgian loafers in caramel suede

Belgian loafers have become a staple in every gentleman’s wardrobe across the globe: While being casual in style, they instantly add a touch of elegance to every outfit, from the most casual ones like Bermudas or jeans to semi-casual combinations such as slacks & blazer all the way to formal black tie.

However, in Alexander Kraft’s not inconsiderable experience, many Belgian loafers have two major weaknesses: Very often, they are cut in a very open, low manner, making them rather flimsy in appearance and giving them a very casual character. Secondly, their construction is usually less than solid, featuring often a very basic production process and/or cemented (instead of stitched) soles.

In creating his perfect pair of Belgian loafers, Alexander Kraft addressed these two points by designing a bespoke, slightly more closed, elongated shape that adds a touch of masculinity to this particular model. In addition, the Alexander Kraft Monte Carlo Belgian loafers are hand-made by a small, artisanal cobbler in Portugal, and feature Blake-stitched leather soles of the highest quality. The material chosen is a precious caramel – colored suede leather with the traditional bow and slightly lighter calf piping as a discreet accent. These supremely elegant, hand-made shoes are incredibly comfortable to wear and extremely versatile to style, making them a must-have for any connoisseur’s wardrobe.

Material and Care Notes

Leather

NB. The AK MC bespoke-influenced last has an elongated toe shape that produces a longer shoe. Most customers prefer to take a size-down than their normal size (eg. a 42.5 instead of a 43). Please message [email protected] if you require assistance in this matter.
