Meet The Sofia in Oatmeal by Adelante, a women’s penny loafer that feels equal parts soft, modern, and endlessly wearable. Handcrafted in Guatemala and made-to-order, this Oatmeal version swaps glossy leather for velvety nubuck in a pale, flattering neutral that goes with nearly everything.
Materials & Construction: The Sofia in Oatmeal is crafted from nubuck leather for a matte, touchable finish, with calfskin lining for a smooth interior feel. A classic penny bridge, vegetable-tanned soling leather midsole, and high-density memory foam insoles offer structure and comfort, while the sturdy sole and stacked heel keep the shoe grounded for everyday wear. Every detail, from the stitching to the topline, is thoughtfully finished by Adelante’s artisans.
Why It’s Good: With Adelante’s made-to-order, living-wage model, each pair of Sofias supports skilled craftsmanship and avoids overproduction. Nubuck and leather components are chosen for longevity, so your loafers can be cleaned, conditioned, and eventually resoled instead of discarded. The soft Oatmeal tone works with a wide range of palettes—neutrals, brights, and prints—helping you do more with fewer shoes and building a more sustainable wardrobe over time.
Style Notes: Style The Sofia in Oatmeal with cropped chinos and a tucked-in tee for off-duty polish, or wear it with a midi skirt and lightweight sweater for a softer, feminine take on menswear-inspired style. The light neutral shade elongates the leg and looks especially chic with monochrome ivory looks or broken-in blue denim.
