The tassel loafer is a subculture classic, presented here in our polished smooth leather—a variation on classic Dr. Martens leather: durable, with a smooth polished surface. This classic low shoe with tassels in black polished smooth leather has a Goodyear welt. This means that the upper and sole have been welded and then sewn together. The legendary Dr. Martens Air Cushion sole is oil and grease resistant, as well as abrasion and slip resistant.
