It feels like our first day of secondary school all over again looking at these chunky loafers rising from the dead. Shoes that we thought we’d never see again, but thankfully, now look a lot better without the addition of a frumpy uniform and awkward pubescent smile.

Yes, the chunky loafer has been granted a new lease of life, teaming up with the black crew sock for a look we can actually get behind.

Bringing us this inspiration, Prada and Gucci are leading the way at the moment with the loafer selection; coming with either a chunky or platform heel – we love how they’re transforming the school shoe to give it a more fashionable seal of approval.

What’s even better is that loafers and socks are a lot more doable than the dad sandals and socks trend for autumn (as well as being more practical in our climate) and so, we can see ourselves hopping on this trend a lot quicker.
