Meet The Sofia in Black by Adelante, a traditional penny loafer thoughtfully reimagined for modern, everyday wear. Handcrafted in Guatemala and made-to-order, this loafer delivers classic polish, cushioned comfort, and a sleek profile that transitions easily from office to off-duty.
Materials & Construction: The Sofia in Black features a smooth leather upper with a classic penny bridge, structured topline, and timeless round-toe silhouette. Inside, cushioned insoles support long days on your feet, while a sturdy yet low-profile sole offers traction without bulk. Each pair is crafted with careful stitching and finishing details that highlight the skill of Adelante’s artisans.
Why It’s Good: Made-to-order production supports living wages in Guatemala and avoids mass overproduction typical of conventional shoe brands. High-quality leather can be polished, conditioned, and eventually resoled, extending the life of this wardrobe staple by years. Choosing one versatile, well-made loafer in neutral black helps reduce the need for multiple pairs of fast-fashion flats that wear out quickly.
Style Notes: Pair The Sofia in Black with tailored trousers and a blazer for a smart office look, or style it with straight-leg jeans and a tucked-in tee for a relaxed yet put-together weekend outfit. It also works beautifully with midi skirts and dresses, grounding more feminine pieces with a slightly borrowed-from-the-boys feel.
