loafer
Shoe without laces
A loafer is a slip-on leather shoe without laces, typically with a low heel and a moccasin-style upper: She wore penny loafers with her khakis.
Separately, a loafer is someone who idles or avoids work—one who loafs around: He spent the summer as a loafer, doing nothing productive.
