Introducing our Unlined Traveler Penny Loafer in a Maduro Shell. The unlined vamp creates a more forgiving feel and will only become more supple with wear.

Maduro is the Spanish term for ripe or mature, meaning fully developed. In the cigar world, Maduro refers to a wrapper leaf, the darkest of all the numerous shades of brown. These wrappers undergo a time-consuming fermentation process with higher temperatures and moisture to produce dark colors and rich flavors. We couldn't think of a better name after seeing this shell color in various lights. This color has many layers, with an earthy, dark brown base. One of the unique properties of Shell Cordovan is the watercolor paint-like character that allows you to see beyond the surface layer. It has a very natural appearance that can be attributed to the six-month-long vegetable-tanned process.

Slight variation is expected as this article is the antithesis of cookie-cutter leather. Shell also uniquely molds to your foot without stretching excessively, creating the ideal loafer material.
