Cuero Rio Suede Loafers

Imported full-grain cow suede upper, cut as a single panel — whole-cut. The only seam runs up the heel. Suede in this construction is more demanding than calfskin; the nap has to run consistently across the panel, and the leather has to be flawless. Hand-welted construction with a stitched leather sole and a stacked leather heel. Padded leather insole. The heel seam is hand-stitched in tonal thread. Built in our Pune workshop. The whole-cut suede loafer is one of the rarer constructions in the line — most makers won't attempt it.

Care Brush after every wear with a dedicated suede brush, working in one direction across the entire upper to keep the nap aligned. Use a suede eraser on scuffs. Apply a suede-specific waterproofing spray every couple of months — whole-cut suede has nowhere to hide water damage. Avoid leather cream entirely. Use shoe trees overnight. Delivery Made to order. Twenty-five days from confirmation to dispatch. Free shipping across India. International orders available — duties payable on delivery.
