When it comes to work-appropriate footwear, two styles stand out from the rest: men's driving mocs and men's loafers. The former is inspired by the authentic slippers originally worn by Native Americans. In the past several decades, it evolved into a contemporary, practical shoe. As the name implies, men's driving moccasins were a popular choice for 20th-century gents who wore them while driving, as they provided a better grip than traditional dress shoes.
Loafers are a more popular style (or at least more widely known), but they're actually modeled after moccasins for men. Featuring a flat heel and leather uppers with stitched detailing, this slip-on shoe is classic, cool, and endlessly versatile, walking the line between casual and formal with finesse. Plus, they're one of the only styles you can wear sockless.
Men's driving loafers and moccasins are already arguably the most comfortable types of dress shoes, but Vionic takes it a step further. Each pair of men’s loafers is designed with our exclusive Vio-Motion Support technology, meaning you'll get all-day arch support, heel stability, and contoured footbeds. For lots of guys, the built-in orthotics offer relief from foot and heel pain while promoting a natural stride. Our men’s driving shoes combine the style of formal shoes with the ease of classic loafer comfort, which make them perfect for both formal occasions and casual outings.
Our casual loafers might be the comfiest you've ever worn, but that doesn't mean they don't look good too.
