Emerald Green Double Monk Strap Leather Shoes vs Adler Dark Green Patent Penny Loafers

The Adler penny loafer is the safer, more comfortable everyday shoe: it is made in Italy, fits true to size, and has a memory foam insole and a grippy EVA lug sole that owners rate highly. The Emerald Green double monk is the more formal, more distinctive choice, with a full-grain leather upper, a leather sole and a double-strap profile that suits suits and business settings. Build quality is close, but the monk strap is the dressier shoe and the loafer is the easier one to wear all day.

• Choose the Emerald Green double monk strap if you need a formal shoe for business dress, weddings or events and want a distinctive green that stands out from black and brown.
• Choose the Adler penny loafer if you want a versatile slip-on you can wear to the office and on weekends, with a cushioned insole and a lug sole that handles wet pavements.
