Hello,

I wasn't sure who to ask or where to look. But I'm trying to properly identify Pee wee Herman's White soft leather tassel loafers and possibly his slip on platform shoes as well. Due to the fact Im not entirely familiar with leather footwear I'm unsure of what style, cut or design of each shoe actually is. Do have any ideas that could lead me in the right spot. I've been looking for these for Six years with no luck. Please help if you can!

Are they "iconic"? The bowtie, OK, but I did not even remember the loafers.
I embraced the two points pocket square based on Pee-Wee, but I had no idea his loafers were Venetian tassels. I'd think any white loafer would suffice. I'd assume they were something of the shelf in the 80s long gone from production.
Wouldn't it be easier to get a venetian loafer and have the tassels added? It doesn't look that tricky.

The Loafers I plan on wearing. The platforms are more for display. The bowtie to me, is as crucial as the suit. As to the shoes. At least that's what I remember when I think of the character. But I haven't been able to find anything. Just one pair from shuperb that was recently discontinued
 
It's a shame old Roger checked out before telling us which European bootie maker might also sell venetian loafers that could be done up in white as a custom order, as we've all seen the interesting concoctions he gets made.

I want to say that, budget permitting, it might be worth a shot asking , as they do venetian loafers, they have white leather for their court shoe, they do a women's tassel, and they do custom orders. But then, the Pee-Wee shoes do seem to have a very high vamp.
