Hello,

Is there on the market any full grain leather penny loafer for around $200?

I have been looking for a while and all I have been able to find below this price is corrected grain, and from there it jumps up to $400 for the Aldens in full grain.

Thanks, would appreciate any help you might provide.

The bass Jeffrey is on sale for right around that on their website- they're handmade in maine, pretty sure they're using fullgrain too. Not a whole lot of sizes available, but worth a glance.

In all seriousness, the AE Hanover (slight squared toe) can be found on close out for under $200; ditto the AE Everett; the Bass Gilman, which is probably corrected grain, but not the plasticky finish is usually around $130; the Bass Logan in tan is only $100; the AE Randolph can be found as seconds pretty easily; the Alden Cape Cod loafers can be had for $250; the LL Bean Signature Maine Standard Loafer is full grain at $100.
