Meermin already had a stacked roster of quality loafers, but it’s showing even more commitment to the slip-on style with the development of its NOVA last. Designed to have a roomy forefoot and a flat, round toe for an elegant yet casual look, Meermin’s new NOVA last is available across a range of unlined loafers. Let’s take a look at some of the highlights.

First off, we have to talk about the 514360, a Venetian-style loafer available in a trio of lovely suedes from C.F. Stead. We don’t see enough Venetian loafers in the game, and Meermin is looking to change that, all while adding their own twist on this minimal style with a taupe-colored rubber sole that makes the 514360 better for traversing the city at a canter. Every pair features hand-sewn detailing around the apron, which finishes off this oh-so-clean silhouette with an artisanal flourish

The 514270 is another special release. Underpinned by classic penny loafer DNA but built on the new NOVA last, these beauties are set off by smooth leather piping around the apron, which is mirrored around the collar of the loafer. These are available in navy or brown Italian suede, or in full soft calf leather.

You can find these and many more loafer options over at Meermin, including the 514511 loafer, which is available in a swathe of leathers, from classic black soft calf to pea green suede. Whatever silhouette or leather you’re interested in, you can rest assured that each pair is handmade with Goodyear welt construction that allows them to be resoled if ever required.

Available at Meermin from $215.
