Why We Love Tucker's Loafers

They're big, they're Brooks Brothers, they're loose...and he likes to play with them.

I had been in the dark about Tucker Carlson and his loafers until I happened to spot him one morning on my way to work. He was wearing a pair of Brooks Brothers/Alden full strap cordovan loafers. They were loose and his heel popped out as he walked, revealing a hole in his sock from the friction. I happened to have my camera with me so I was able to capture some photos.

The response to my photos and my subsequent blog post revealed that more than a few loafer lovers had been following Tucker's feet for quite some time!  If I had known that he played with his loafers while appearing on national TV, I might have watched his MSNBC show.

Click on the photo below for an example of Tucker's loafers on TV display.  (Thanks, JG, for sharing!)



If anyone knows where to find more photos of Tucker and his large loafers, please share!

UPDATE:

Thanks to TZ4589 for sharing this great find. I've only seen Tucker in BB cordovan full straps but of course a prepster like him would have at least one trusty pair of penny loafers!



Any more Tucker loafer pics out there?

    I am so jealous that you have sightings of Tucker in-person. He is probably one of the best shoeplayers on tv. Does anyone know of any other news people or broadcasters who like to play with their loafers on the air?

    Love Tucker's loafers, especially when he wears them in fierce prep style sockless.
