Fashion imprint Blackstock & Weber introduces a new look at its signature Ellis Penny Loafer model as it gets a new makeover entitled 'Garden Snake.' As referenced by its new namesake, the shoe is designed with snakeskin patterning throughout the entire upper.
It quickly follows the recent Desert Snake iteration and what makes it different from the prior model is mainly the color palette. The prior iteration was detailed with hints of beige and yellow, and this time around, the shoe boasts darker shades. This features hues of black, tobacco, and deep amber for a warm neutral tone that is also perfect for wearing all year round. It sits on top of a Goodyear-welted sole unit and has branding on the insoles.
