The Macallan teamed up with luxury shoe brand Rob McAllan to create a very exclusive, limited-edition luxury loafer for men inspired by The Macallan Rare Cask whisky.
The men's loafers are adorned with subtle details in gold stitching and opulent accented heels. Just 100 pairs of the all-black loafers for men have been made available for sale, with each of 'The King of Speyside' designs priced at $500—all of which is donated to the Folded Flag Foundation, which supports spouses and children of our fallen heroes with educational scholarships.
This year, The Macallan 1926 broke a new record for the most expensive bottle of whisky ever sold and has been experimenting with various ventures, such as curating travel experiences and opening a state-of-the-art distillery and visitor center.
