FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Will the mules slip off my feet while walking?

Our mules are designed with a deep vamp (the top part of the shoe) that comes further up the foot, ensuring a secure fit that stays in place while you walk.

Can I wear socks with mules?

While fashion rules are meant to be broken, mules are traditionally designed to be worn without socks to highlight the ankle and the relaxed nature of the shoe. However, during the cooler-weather months, wearing them with socks can make for a very cool, modern look.

Is the sizing different from the standard loafers?

We recommend ordering up one half or one full size compared to your typical loafer size. This ensures your heel doesn't overhang the back of the sole.

The Milano Mule is the ultimate expression of effortless Italian style. We took our signature Venetian-Belgian Loafer silhouette and removed the heel counter to create a refined, backless slip-on. This design bridges the gap between a house slipper and a dress shoe, offering the structure of a loafer with the ease of a slide. It is the definitive choice for the modern man seeking a luxury leather or suede mule.
