Brief history of the Moccasin

The first moccasins as we know them today were launched in the 1930s, inspired by those worn by Native Americans, and although fashion critics at the time did not love them, many stars used them and still do today, starting with Fred Astaire (tap dancer) up to Elvis Presley.

University students then adopted them as a must-have shoe, nicknaming them penny loafer because they inserted a penny coin into the strap.

Styling tips

The moccasins as mentioned earlier, are low and comfortable shoes that, in a daytime look, can be paired to achieve a more casual or elegant effect depending on what they are matched with. For women, they also often have a slight heel, which makes them more wearable without risking back fatigue. The ideal companions for moccasins? Denim, tweed, British style, pleated skirts, and Ivy League-style sweaters.
