Loro Piana
Loro Piana is luxury at its most understated. The Piedmont house, rooted in fine textiles for generations, built its name on the rarest fibres: baby cashmere, vicuña and the finest wools. Its pieces carry almost no visible branding. You recognise them by touch.
Every Loro Piana piece we offer is examined in our studio. For shoes, our specialists check the suede or leather, the stitching of the moccasin construction, the sole and its markings, the lining and the interior stamp, and they look at wear to the sole, heel and toe. Listings give the size and describe condition precisely, with photographs of the soles.
In the shop now: the Open Walk loafers. The Open Walk is a soft, ankle-height moccasin boot, often in suede, with a flexible sole and a quiet metal charm at the lace. It is famous for its comfort and has become a signature of relaxed, quietly polished dressing.

Caring for suede
Brush suede gently in one direction with a soft suede brush, use a protective spray before wearing in damp weather, and store shoes with shoe trees so they keep their shape.
Why the Open Walk endures
Comfort is the quiet secret of the Open Walk. Its supple construction moulds to the foot with wear, and its restrained design pairs with tailoring, denim and knitwear alike.
Our client team can confirm the size and send photographs of the soles and lining on request.
