I’m very happy to report that the bit loafers from Oak Street Bootmakers are back. I got a pair of the dark brown bit loafers a few years ago, and wear them all the time. To me, these are the perfect bit loafers. This is the type of loafer that looks great with a pair of jeans or a suit. The vamp is just right, the beef roll gives it some heft, and the toe box is petite; it’s cut more like a dress shoe than a casual loafer.
That’s how all of the Oak Street loafers are cut: just right. I have quite a few pairs, and will keep adding to the collection. They are handcrafted in the USA, and the price point is attractive for such a good pair of dress shoes. They are easily on par with Alden. Try and pair and you’ll see…
The Bits are offered in chocolate brown and black:
And as if to tease my senses, they added some really sweet suede options. In snuff, tan, and …ready for this??… navy blue. Get your Elvis on. Here are the goods:
The whole collection is available on their website.
