HuffPost's shopping team polled itself and produced fourteen loafer recommendations for fall, spanning knit-soled Vivaia flats to chunky tasseled Dr. Martens. Each pick comes with a purchase link and a commission disclosure noting HuffPost may profit from clicks.

The article frames loafers as a personal obsession among staff, citing a colleague's affection for a Dr. Martens pair discontinued in an olive shade and now available in pink nubuck suede.

The full dispatch is available from the source below.

✒ FROM THE EDITORIAL DESK
Calling a shoe list journalism is a stretch, but at least this one admits upfront it gets a cut if you buy the shoes. That's more honesty than most press releases manage. Still, 'fellow obsessives' doing a shopping list for a paycheck is not exactly a groundswell.
