Platform loafers built on a sole you can see from across the room. Talia keeps the upper plain and rounded — no tassel, no penny strap, no stitching pattern — so all the weight sits in the toe and the slab underneath it. The proportion is deliberately off, which is what makes these chunky loafers read modern instead of prep. They are cut to be worn with a visible sock, ribbed or sheer, and they look wrong without one. Pair them with cropped trousers or a pleated skirt and let the sole finish the outfit.

Chunky loafers need a sock and a hem that stops above the sole; the sheer crew and the ribbed split toe sock below are the two we photographed them with.

Materials: vegan leather (artificial leather) and other animal-free materials. No leather, suede or animal products anywhere.
