Model 88 is a lighter option of the loafer for a more elegant look. The original Model 98 was a shoe for the house or "over the way". Model 88 is more aimed at the house shoe end of that spectrum so it is lighter and more delicate for occasion wear and light duties. Subtle Wildsmith diamonds run up the heel to keep the main shoe free of clutter so you can admire it's sleek lines. With the range of colours and contrast options available this could be a shoe you own in multiple variations.

Care guide

We only make our footwear from the finest quality materials but without proper care that benefit will be lost, so maximise your investment by following these simple tips.

Keep them clean and store them well

Use a dry cloth or a stiff shoe brush to prevent the build-up of dust and dirt. Use a shoe tree to store your freshly polished shoes to preserve their ‘just-new’ look. Keep them dry but don't use direct heat.

Leather care

Apply shoe cream to help nourish the leather and prevent drying and cracking. Using a wax polish will maximise the water-repelling properties of the leather, form a layer of protection against staining and create that perfect shine.
