Astra | Blue Velvet-Look Penny Loafers

ASTRA

The Astra is a penny loafer in a soft blue velvet-look finish, on a slim rubber sole. It is a classic shape in an unexpected colour, which is the easiest way to make a plain outfit look as if you planned it.

WHY WOMEN LOVE THE ASTRA

• A colour with some nerve. Soft blue is a gentle way out of black and brown, and it sits happily with cream and denim.
• A velvet-look sheen. The finish catches the light, so a pair of plain trousers suddenly has something to say for itself.
• The classic penny strap. The strap across the vamp is what makes a penny loafer a penny loafer, and it has not dated yet.
• A slim rubber sole. The sole is slim and rubber, so the shoe keeps a neat, low line.
• Slip-on. No laces and no buckles. You step in and go.

HOW TO WEAR THEM

With ankle-length trousers and a cream knit, or with a print skirt. Let a little ankle show so the colour has room to be seen.

FIT AND SIZE

Sizes run from UK 3 to UK 10. Each size shows the UK size first, with the Australian size the shoe is made in alongside it, for example UK 4 (AU 6), so choose your usual UK size. If you are unsure, measure your foot before you order and email us.

General size guide, measure your foot from heel to longest toe. If you are between two sizes, take the larger.
