It's hard to miss that loafers are everywhere at the moment. In recent seasons, the classic shoe has been reimagined and updated with a variety of colors, finishes and materials. In light of the rising popularity of flats, this style's revival isn't entirely unexpected. Comfortable yet sophisticated enough to wear to the office or on a dinner date, they're just what we've come to expect over the past two years. The loafer perfectly represents a classic, yet stylish attitude. The loafer is a versatile shoe that can be styled many different ways when paired with a feminine look, such as shift dresses, or a sporty look, such as nylon windbreakers, to add a new twist to the classic elegance.

Come autumn and winter, you can wear them with socks and tailored trousers or tights and a mini shift dress; for spring and summer, you can wear them with maxi dresses, tailored shorts or bare legs and mini skirts. It is endless what you can wear with them.

It's important to buy quality loafers that you can wear for years to come. Checkout some of the best loafers of 2022.
