Bontoni Black Principe Alligator Penny Loafer
Discover the Bontoni Principe penny loafer in black alligator—an exquisite expression of Italian shoemaking, available exclusively through the brand’s Made-To-Order (MTO) program. Crafted from genuine alligator leather, the loafer features a sleek apron toe, notched vamp, and a classic penny keeper strap. Its understated silhouette is elevated by the natural texture and depth of the exotic skin, offering a refined alternative to traditional calfskin. The interior is lined with supple leather, complemented by a leather insole, ensuring comfort and breathability. A leather outsole with a rubber inset provides durability and traction, making it suitable for both formal and casual settings. Original shoetrees and dustbags are included.
Handcrafted in Bontoni’s Montegranaro workshop in Italy, each pair of Principe loafers undergoes a meticulous process that spans approximately 14 weeks and involves nearly 26 hours of dedicated craftsmanship. The MTO program allows clients to personalize various aspects of the shoe, including style, material, color, sole, and construction, using existing lasts as a foundation. This approach offers a bespoke-like experience without the extended timeline of full bespoke services. The exclusivity of the MTO process, combined with the use of premium alligator leather, contributes to the loafer's elevated value and unique appeal.
