Emerald Suede Penny Loafers vs Emerald Green Double Monk Strap Leather Shoes

Two emerald green dress shoes with very different builds. The Penny Loafers are a softer, casual slip-on: suede upper, leather lining, gum rubber studded sole, made in Portugal. The Double Monk Straps are a more formal, harder-wearing shoe: full-grain crust leather, leather sole with rubber insert, and a cemented build. Buy the loafers for relaxed smart-casual wear and easy on-off; buy the monks for office and formal wear and a longer service life.

• Choose the Penny Loafers if you want an easy slip-on in suede with a grippy rubber sole for smart-casual days.
• Choose the Double Monk Straps if you want a more formal, structured shoe in full-grain leather for office and event wear.
