Okay, so, I’ve been messing around with these loafer shoes lately, and I wanted to share my experience figuring out what they’re made of. You know, those slip-on shoes that everyone seems to be wearing?
Figuring Out What They’re Made Of
First off, I got myself a pair of these loafers, the “Struan” ones, because I liked the style. I started checking them out, feeling the material, trying to see what it was. Most of the time, these kinds of shoes are made from leather or suede, so I was pretty sure it was one of those.

- Touching and feeling: I spent a good amount of time just touching the shoes, trying to understand the texture.
- Looking closely: I even got a magnifying glass to look at the material up close.
After all that, I figured they were made from high-quality leather. These Struan loafers felt really nice and seemed pretty durable, so that made sense. I mean, they weren’t cheap, so I expected them to be made of something good.
Getting Fancy with It
Then I got curious about the different styles of loafers. Some of them have tassels, some have these rubber grips on the bottom, and there are all these colors and designs. I started trying on different pairs, just to see how they felt.
- Trying different styles: I went to a few stores and tried on a bunch of different loafers.
- Comparing materials: I noticed that some were definitely leather, while others were suede or maybe even something else.
It was kind of fun seeing all the options. I ended up getting another pair, this time with some tassels, just because I liked how they looked.
Wearing Them Out
Finally, I started wearing my Struan loafers out and about. I wanted to see how they held up to everyday use. I wore them to work, to the store, just everywhere.
- Testing them out: I wore the loafers for a few weeks, just living my normal life.
- Checking for wear and tear: I kept an eye on how they were holding up, looking for any damage.
They were super comfortable, which was great. And they actually held up pretty well. The leather seemed to be pretty strong, and they didn’t get scuffed up too easily.
So, yeah, that’s my little journey with figuring out what loafers, especially these Struan ones, are made of. It was a fun little experiment, and I ended up with some cool shoes out of it. Plus, I learned a bit more about shoes, which is always a plus!
