These are the elegant Japanese loafers that look best with jeans, skirts and dresses in summer (and fall) 2026

Although we are still making the most of the sandals, in a few weeks it will get colder and socks will not only be desirable, they will become essential if we want to avoid a cold. Fashion is always ahead and we already know which footwear will be a trend this fall-winter and (with the permission of the sneakers) the most recurrent ones will undoubtedly be loafers.

Of course, those who seek to stand out set their sights on Japanese fashion and confirm the return of a very specific type: the chunky-style Japanese moccasin with Yohji Yamamoto as its main defender. For example, this design full of zippers that could not be more original and, at the same time, more versatile.

It has everything that is asked of a luxury shoe: originality, basic elements that allow us to use them again and again, luxury materials and, of course, comfort. A gem that is worth having in your shoe rack to wear season after season, if you can afford to buy them for 680 euros.

More Japanese style loafers from Zara

Luckily for us, Zara is always inspired by luxury to bring it closer to the rest of us and although we changed the zippers for the XL tassel, this pair of moccasins with flat soles has all the vibes of Yohji Yamamoto's but for only 29.95 euros.

How to combine Japanese moccasins

A pair of black loafers goes with everything: dresses, skirts, jeans. But to multiply the aura of Japanese style -aka minimalism with an original touch- this dress from the Portuguese brand Parfois with transparencies and a loose silhouette is ideal for 15.99 euros. We can wear it alone with our loafers (and high socks) or with loose pants underneath to sign up for layering as set by the 2026/2027 trends.
