DESCRIPTION
Founded in 1891 by Édouard Blanchard in Limoges, France, J.M. Weston has produced classic footwear for over 100 years. The iconic French Penny loafer, termed the 180 loafer was produced in 1946. Using a 180-step process, it features a traditional Goodyear welt construction, full-grain French boxcalf leather, and a signature split apron toe. Originally adopted by Parisian "Drugstore Gangs", they wore them barefoot with jeans, transforming it into a rebellious fashion staple during the 1960s. The shoe is rich in history and even better on foot. We recommend a half size down from your Brannock.
