Consider this lineup your ticket to loafer legend status.

The penny loafer is a bona fide classic&mdash;a shoe that&rsquo;s stood the test of time. For decades, it&rsquo;s been the go-to shoe for men who value style and versatility, working just as well with a suit as it does with a casual weekend look. But here&rsquo;s the twist: while its roots are undeniably traditional, today&rsquo;s takes on the loafer are anything but predictable. Designers are giving this timeless staple a fresh update, balancing the old-school charm with modern edge and a little bit of fun.
Whether it&rsquo;s sleek and understated or bold and playful, there&rsquo;s a penny loafer out there to match your vibe. From Ferragamo&rsquo;s polished craftsmanship to Tom Ford&rsquo;s contemporary take, brands are proving this classic shoe has range. Looking to keep it timeless or ready to take a style risk? Either way, the penny loafer is here to anchor your wardrobe&mdash;and maybe steal the show while it&rsquo;s at it.

Ferragamo takes the penny loafer back to its roots while keeping it grounded in the now. Made from ultra-soft Italian calfskin, it&rsquo;s the kind of shoe that feels as good as it looks. The double-stitched penny strap and chunky rubber sole add just enough edge to keep things casual without losing the classic appeal.
