While my closet is filled with heeled flip-flops and comfortable sneakers, I’m surprisingly limited in my selection of loafers. And with celebs like Gigi Hadid recently reminding me how versatile a summer shoe the style can be, it didn’t take me long to seek out affordable options.

I naturally ran to Quince, which is brimming with Italian leather loafers in so many silhouettes, including penny, lug-sole, and horsebit styles. Shop my picks, including convenient slip-ons, everyday chunky loafers and more comfortable finds.

Italian Leather Horsebit Loafer Mule

$72 at Quince.com

I’m all about effortless accessories that instantly upgrade an outfit, and this pair of slip-on loafers is easy to throw on while running out of the house. The “chic” and “polished” pair looks “so sophisticated,” according to one shopper, who added that they are “comfortable enough to wear all day.” The mules have a short, 8-millimeter heel with extra padding for maximum support and come in four neutral shades. I’m grabbing these while they’re back in stock.

Italian Leather Horsebit Loafer

$84 at Quince.com

These leather loafers have the same horsebit style as the slip-on pair, but I like that the full-back option offers more coverage and support. They have a buffed outsole for added traction and stability and a cushioned insole, so I can wear them from the office to dinner without worrying about discomfort. The popular pair has a timeless silhouette and comes in four colors: light brown, dark brown, white, and black.

Italian Leather Soft Loafer

$84 at Quince.com

I love a thick-soled loafer for support and comfort, but I also favor a sleeker silhouette like this pair. The soft loafer has a plush, cushioned insole for walking, and the minimal design is great for styling with dresses or skirts that might feel weighed down by a chunkier style. Plus, they’re “chic enough for me to wear to the office,” according to one shopper, and will “improve any outfit,” according to another who added that they are “comfortable out of the box.”

Italian Leather Lug-Sole Loafer

$98 at Quince.com

For a shoe that can be worn for both running errands and a nice dinner, I’m also considering this pair of lug-sole loafers that one shopper said requires “zero break-in period.” The chunky base features an Ortholite insole with extra padding and cushioned arch support, while the “excellent quality” exterior is made of durable Italian leather. Plus, a second reviewer who wore these while traveling said they looked “more put together” than tennis shoes.
