By “modern” do you mean 2010?
Penny loafers make me think of all the snobby kids in sunday school and also this scene from the 1993 PBS adaptation of Tales of the City (and the book) where Michael tells his pickup that he had his Weejuns ‘half-soled.’ “Far Out!”
These are adorable, but of course they don’t have the one I like in my size. Sigh.
I went to school with a rich schmuck which put $100 bills in its penny loafers. Creep.
So you need different shoes every time your mood changes?

As a child, the payphone was still only 20 cents, I kept a dime in each loafer for emergencies.
Why not make emojis the size of a penny to fit the traditional style of loafers?
Have you shopped for athletic shoes lately?
Or alligators to match the Izod lifestyle?
I did the exact same thing!
This is kinda sad, really.
