You can also refer to them as "driving loafers" or simply "drivers." These shoes feature a moccasin-style construction that allows for easy slip-on wear and a comfortable yet snug fit. A standout characteristic of driving loafers is the small rubber pebbles that adorn the sole and extend to the rear of the heel. This design not only enhances flexibility but also provides superior grip, essential for both driving and casual wear. The driving moccasin has been expertly engineered to ensure comfort while navigating the road with four wheels, embodying the Italian automotive spirit by marrying luxury with practicality.

When comparing two different shoes, it is important to understand that, despite their external differences, the inner shape plays a critical role in achieving a proper fit.
Below is a comparison between two Wholecut shoes as an example, both in the same size (42 EU).
The one on the left is made using the Zurigo Last (rounded toe), while the other features the Monti Last (long chisel toe).
As illustrated, the long and narrow toe shape of the Monti last creates a larger blind or unused space at the toe. The amount of space in front of the toe varies based on the shoe type and its toe shape.
Therefore, although the shoe on the right is 1 cm longer (total length measured from the heel to the tip of the toe), both shoes effectively share the same actual size.
