Moreschi shoes are traditionally comfortable: we recommend choosing one size smaller than your usual size

Dortmund Nappa is a men's tubular loafer in black nappa leather, crafted with Blake construction and a leather sole.

Nappa — goatskin with a smooth and silky surface — differs from calfskin through an immediate softness and a finer surface. To the touch, Dortmund responds with a fluidity unlike any other material in the range, closer to fabric than to conventional leather. Tubular construction — the technique that stitches upper and sole in a single enveloping movement, characteristic of the drivers and the softest loafers within the Moreschi Heritage Collection — applied to nappa produces a fit that settles from the very first wear without friction. The internal Blake stitching provides structure and long-term durability without adding weight to the construction. The leather sole places Dortmund in the formal loafer register, balancing the lightness of the material with a quality profile.

Dortmund Nappa pairs with lightweight tailored suits, fine wool trousers, chino and business casual looks. Black nappa and the leather sole make it suited to semi-formal contexts as well.

Dortmund takes its name from a Ruhr city that reinvented itself while keeping its own solidity intact — a character that belongs to a loafer combining material lightness and constructive robustness.

For a nappa loafer with a lateral logo and an even softer fit, the Moreschi loafer range includes Cadice.

Care

Nappa leather is prized for its silky touch and refined softness. To maintain its delicate finish and uniform appearance, clean the shoes with a soft, dry cloth, avoiding brushes or abrasive products.

Use a neutral wax specifically formulated for smooth, soft leathers, applied in small amounts with light pressure to nourish the leather without altering its silky surface.

Avoid exposure to intense light or heat. Store the shoes in a cool, dry place with wooden shoe trees to retain their structure.

For deeper maintenance, consult a professional shoemaker, ideally one experienced in delicate leathers.

Blake construction

The Blake construction is used for shoes with leather or rubber soles and ensures a secure bond between the upper, midsole, and outsole. After an initial phase of gluing and pressing, the sole is further reinforced with a single stitch made using a specialized Blake machine, which fastens the bottom of the shoe directly to the upper.

The result is a solid yet flexible shoe, ideal for refined everyday wear.
