Our penny loafer was created with two things in mind: versatility and comfort. It's the ultimate shoe for travel, given the ability to be paired with a sport coat or t-shirt and almost anything in between. We find ourselves wearing this shoe year-round—sockless with shorts/lightweight fabrics in the summer and with wool socks and denim through the winter.

Combining a forgiving upper leather and soft insole/outsole tannage, the Traveler Penny strikes the perfect balance of structure and support.

Traveler Penny Black Suede

Made with

Goodyear-welt Construction

Renowned for its durability and ability to be resoled repeatedly, Goodyear-welt construction involves stitching a welt—a strip of leather—around the shoe's perimeter, creating a cavity. After filling the cavity with the shank and cork, the sole is attached, providing strength and water resistance. This construction method results in shoes that are not only long-lasting but also easily repairable, making them a timeless investment in quality craftsmanship.

Utilizing the

Alexander Last

Explicitly designed for loafers, the Alexander Last features the classic contours and higher sidewalls of a rounded casual-comfort loafer compared to its dressier counterparts. The Alexander Last offers a sleek profile while maintaining a generous toe box, allowing your forefoot generous amounts of room.

Had these for a while

"I've had these for a while. Several months but I have not worn them as much as I would like. I am a big fan of GS and I own several boots, shoes, and loafers. I ordered these 1/2 larger than my Leo lasted boots. I am a 10D brannock. I'm 9D on the Leo, 8. 5D on the Floyd, 10D on the Campus(but I could've gone down to a 9. 5D), 9E & 9. 5D on the Alexander last. The first ever loafers were the midnight suede Travelers in a 9D which killed my feet so I tried the 9E and then these I tried a 9. 5D. They're a little on the loose side but it's better than the 9E's. I don't think I've broken in these loafers yet as I have a little heelslip. I did have to stretch these with a shoe stretcher or else it would really hurt my instep after a full day of wear. I really love the way these loafers look, moreso than any other makers loafers. The moc toe stitching looks awesome in my opinion. Perfect shape. Very similar to the Ottawa's. The butyl leather sole is really nice. Feels softer than the regular leather sole but is still durable. I'm wearing them today so let's hope the instep has broken in and won't cause a welt. CFS suede is my second favorite leather. Shell first, CFS suede and then CXL. There are only 2 or 3 styles that I don't like from GS but the rest are pretty great looking. Thanks!"

Gorgeous!

"The suede is perfect! Three compliments the first day!"

My first Loafer

"- First impression: amazing unboxing experience - Material: Perfect (Repello calf suede is soft, sturdy and easy to clean) - Delivery: Quick! It took 6 days to deliver to VN (The custom fee was crazy tho) - Sizing: Half size down from Brannock was perfect. I wish the heel cuff would be a bit more round to hug the heel securely. Light heel slips are expected."

"Love these loafer, love the black suede. This is my 4th pair of Travelers. They are snug at first, but fit like a glove after some wear. NICE SHOES"

Green undertones

"Perfect fit as always. Im a 9.5E brannock and a perfect fit in 9E leo last. Also love the black suede: just a hint of dark green in the light which is awesome."

Amazing shoes

"Quality and look is fantastic!"

Awesome shoes

"Bought my first pair of Grant Stones and was immediately impressed. I sized down 1/2 a size and that was not enough. A quick email to customer service had me sorted out with a full size down replacement in no time."
