Price History
Description
Hang loose with this big old softie of an armchair. The handy removable covers are great for that laid-back look - and even better for spills.
Our Stylist Says
I love the Sloafer armchair for its versatile and timeless design, making it a great addition to both classic and contemporary interiors. Its neutral colour and simple silhouette allow it to blend seamlessly into various colour palettes, whether paired with bold accessories or kept minimal for a more understated look. It works particularly well in cosy living rooms or reading nooks, where comfort is key. For practical styling, consider adding a textured throw or a mix of cushions to introduce colour and pattern, and position it alongside other neutral or wooden pieces to create a warm, inviting space. Its compact size also makes it ideal for smaller rooms or as an extra seating option without overwhelming the space.

About Loaf
From Beds to Diverse Furniture
Loaf is a popular British furniture store that started as "The Sleep Room" by Charlie Marshall in 2008. Charlie used money from selling his old business and his savings to start it.
At first, they just sold beds, with Charlie researching 187 mattress and bed factories to ensure only the best products. But by 2012, they began selling other furniture like sofas, chairs, and lights, which led to its rebranding as "Loaf."
Their growth was so impressive that by 2013, they ranked 40th on the Sunday Times Fast Track 100, becoming the 3rd fastest growing retailer in the UK.
Sustainability and Ethical Approach
Loaf's commitment to the environment and ethical practices is evident in their efforts to ensure sustainable sourcing. They aim for all their materials to be responsibly sourced or derived from recycled materials by 2025.
For instance, the timber in their sofa frames comes from responsibly managed forests. Additionally, they're working towards reducing their carbon emissions, improving packaging to be 100% recyclable, and respecting animal welfare.
Notably, their wool will be certified to the Responsible Wool Standard by 2023. Loaf also ensures that all their employees, or 'Loafers,' are paid at least the 'real' Living Wage.
Locations and Community Engagement
Presently, Loaf boasts ten showrooms, uniquely referred to as 'slowrooms,' mainly around London. Beyond just business, they're active in community engagement.
They have partnered with St Mungo's, a leading UK charity, aiming to spend 10,000 hours over the next three years volunteering and raising funds to combat homelessness.
