There’s a kind of style telepathy<\/a> that happens between famous dudes. One steps out in something new, and within days another appears in the exact same thing<\/a>. Case in point: Jacob Elordi and Harry Styles, who have both gravitated towards one extremely luxe pair of eel-leather loafers.<\/p>\n

Over the weekend, Elordi continued his delightfully thematic<\/a> Frankenstein press tour wardrobe at an event in London, where he pulled up in a pair of loafers by The Row. For those who don’t know, The Row is the ultra-luxury label<\/a> founded by Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen that’s known for its quiet, meticulous design\u2014the kind of pieces that look simple but feel incredible. That’s why menswear guys obsess over them so much (and why pieces routinely cost more than a month’s rent).<\/p>\n

A stable in The Row’s footwear arsenal, the \u201csoft eel loafers\u201d are made in Italy with delicate pleats surrounding the almond toe. The sole’s wrapped in extra leather and hand-painted\u2014the sort of finishing touch The Row saves for pieces it really wants you to notice.<\/p>\n

Elordi’s wore his eel loafers just days after he was spotted in the Nike Dunk Low \u2018Frankenstein,\u2019<\/a> and if you remember, this is exactly the evolution we talked about a few weeks ago\u2014how sneaker dudes are drifting toward loafers<\/a> not as a rejection of their old habits, but as a natural next step of their sartorial tastes. You don’t grow out of sneakers; you just realize loafers can scratch the same itch with a bit more range.<\/p>\n

While the Saltburn star wore his pair with that tall, slightly chaotic elegance that he’s brought to everything this press tour, pop star Harry Styles, by contrast, treats his Row loafers like sneakers<\/a>\u2014a.k.a. shoes you’d run errands in. Two guys, zero coordination, both landing on the same odd, beautiful loafer. Coincidence? Maybe! Or maybe not!<\/a><\/p>\n

So yes, Jacob Elordi and Harry Styles are wearing the exact same shoes now. But it’s less about twinning and more about timing. The loafer wave is here<\/a>, and the biggest names in the world are riding it\u2014one slippery, shiny pair at a time.<\/p>\n
