loafer evolution


"I like bars just after they open in the evening. When the air inside is still cool and clean and everything is shiny. The first quiet drink of the evening in a quiet bar-that's wonderful."
— Raymond Chandler

Re: loafer evolution

Nice piece D&F. I just bought a pair of 50s Nettleton venetian loafers. I discovered that Nettleton took out a patent on the style and name 'The Loafer' in 1937. Makes you wonder how Bass were making loafers a year earlier but that they still got a patent.
