Our notes
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 and a black short-sleeve shirt to create a sleek, monochrome look that's both stylish and comfortable.
The Italian bio-based vegan leather uppers (62–66% plant-origin materials) 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 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 chunky TR track soles (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 — a soft memory foam top layer over a recycled PU base (20% recycled PU) — 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.
- Upper
- Italian bio-based vegan leather (62–66% plant-origin materials)
- Lining
- Portuguese vegan suede (100% PU) – soft and comfortable against the foot, with a breathable suede texture that helps keep feet fresh
- Insole
- Cushioned layered insole – a soft memory foam top layer over a recycled PU base (20% recycled PU) cut to fit the shoe
- Outsole
- Chunky lugged TR track sole – deep tread for solid grip underfoot, with the bold, stacked look that defines the style
- Shank
- Steel shank for stability and support through the arch

- Mounted (cemented) construction – the upper is lasted to shape and the outsole bonded directly underneath. The most widely used construction method in footwear, it gives a clean, flexible build, though the outsole isn't easily resoled

Sehr gute Qualität und sehr bequem. Jederzeit zu empfehlen.
Es sind sehr schöne Schuhe, aber es ist schwer eine Größe zu finden die passt und sogar aus den Schuhe in Größe 40, was zwei Größen kleiner ist als ich sonst trage, rutsche ich hinten raus.
Hallo Daniel,
Ich wollte mich persönlich bei Ihnen melden. Es tut mir wirklich leid von den Problemen mit Ihrem Kauf zu hören und dass sie nicht so funktioniert haben, wie Sie es erwarten würden. Es tut mir leid, dass die Passform nicht stimmt und Sie selbst in zwei Größen kleiner noch hinten rausrutschen.
Sie können mich für jede Hilfe direkt per E-Mail erreichen unter wg@wills-vegan-shoes.com
Bitte lassen Sie mich wissen, wenn ich Ihnen noch weiterhelfen kann,

I had to return the loafers twice despite purchasing my usual shoe size. Even going down two sizes, they were still very loose. Other customers have experienced the same issue . Wills, please reconsider your sizing advice for these loafers as they run VERY large.
I ordered this shoe for the first time almost 6 months ago. When they arrived, even though I had measured my feet per your instructions, the size was way too large, the heel slipping off w ith the first step. I requested a replacement/exchange for a smaller size which I received and which was also too large, the same fit problem with slipping off my feet immediately. I have subsequently returned both pairs which is another logistics nightmare story. I truly love the style of the shoe and am very disappointed in the fit, particularly when I checked more than once about "how the shoes run, sizewise" and was told "true to size" which is not accurate. Still on the hunt for a great loafer.
Hi,
I'm really sorry to hear that the sizing didn’t work out, even after following the fit guide — I can imagine how frustrating it must have been to receive not one, but two pairs that didn’t fit properly. It’s especially disappointing when you love the style, and I truly understand your frustration.
We take feedback like this seriously and want to make things right for you. I’ve just sent you an email with more information to help further.
For your peace of mind, we will always refund, replace, or try to repair any purchase if you're not happy at any point — just let us know, and we’ll take care of everything.
Speak soon,
Henry
The quality of the loafers are excellent. However, the size of the shoes need to be fixed as I had to return them twice before finding a size that sort of fits. The lip at the back is still loose so I have to wear thick socks which is not ideal.
