Verde Serpente Royale Python-Embossed Loafers vs Adler Dark Green Patent Penny Loafers

Buy the Verde Serpente if you want a statement shoe for weddings, receptions and evening wear; its emerald python-embossed leather and elongated toe are more dramatic than the Adler. Buy the Adler if you want a loafer you can wear all day and night; it has a memory foam insole, a lightweight EVA lug sole and a 4.7 rating from 826 owners. The Verde Serpente is a pure leather dress shoe with a sewn border and Italian construction, but it is less forgiving over long distances. The Adler is the more versatile, more comfortable pick, though its patent finish and lug sole read less formal.

• Choose the Verde Serpente if you want a bold green python-embossed loafer for a wedding, reception or statement evening look.
• Choose the Adler if you want a comfortable, true-to-size penny loafer you can wear from day into night.
