Horsebit Calf Leather Loafers – Black

Introducing the John Simons x Rancourt Horse Bit loafer.

Proudly Made in Maine, USA, in the finest full grain leather, our John Simons x Rancourt loafers harken back to a time when these leisure shoes represented true craftsmanship and comfort. This particular model features a snaffle bit hardware which is constructed from antique brass produced in Japan.

Featuring:

• Full grain leather outer
• Full grain leather insole
• Embossed heel sock
• Water tight leather outer sole
• Genuine hand-sewn Moccasin construction
• Brass hardware 

The Horse Bit loafer was a staple in 1960’s and 70’s American menswear. One need look no further than Jason Robard’s character, Ben Bradlee, in the 1976 film All The President’s Men for evidence of these iconic shoes in the field. We recommend pairing the loafers with some light knitwear from Alan Paine and F.O.B. cords for a casual 1960’s feel.
