It’s a Loafer, It’s a Slipper, It’s an UGG Slipper-Loafer
You've heard of sneaker-loafers. Now get ready for slipper-loafers. UGG has tossed its hat in the hybrid shoe ring with the new Ascot Wrap Tech slip-on, a mix between a slipper and a loafer.
Fusing the best parts of an UGG shoe and a traditional loafer, the Wrap Tech's suede upper and wool insole bring in coziness, while its Vibram outsole offers substantial grip, making it suitable for outdoor wear.
It's no secret that we’re living in the golden age of loafers. From New Balance's divisive 1906L loafers to HOKA's dapper Speed Loafer, every brand wants a piece of the loafer pie. And rightfully so — loafers are the chameleons of footwear, easily transitioning from business meetings to social gatherings and, in the case of ROA, hiking trails as well.
Couple that with corpcore's enduring popularity, and it's not hard to see why UGG created a loafer of its very own.
As the hybrid shoe agenda barrels onward, competition within the slip-on shoe game will only get stiffer. But when it comes to having the coziest loafer on the market, UGG has them all beat.
