Loafers are cool, but they’re not always comfortable. And Uggs … typically have the opposite problem to contend with.

That’s what makes the brand’s new Shep Loafer so compelling; it bridges the gap between comfy and cool, and, for those who view the Uggs aesthetic as questionable at best, infuses fresh style into silhouette.

The Shep Loafer is designed to be an indoor/outdoor slip-on style that can hang on the couch as easily as it can run errands. That’s thanks to its genuine suede upper, warm UggPlush lining and a sheepskin insole, all of which are Ugg mainstays.

The laid-back, lightweight loafer’s sugarcane EVA outsole won’t weigh you down, but it will provide the right amount of support for all-day wear.

Available in Chestnut, Black or Dusted Cocoa (my personal favorite) the Shep Loafer is an ideal hybrid style for fans of a dressier look who also like to keep things casual, and, at $130, it sits at a fairly reasonable price point too.
