Sorry..I usually don't read the explanation if I don't find the answer given to be what I think is the best translation - thus I did not see your "Referência já indicada" until you called attention to it.

Referência já indicada por mim na discussão precedente e acompanhando também a minha proposta de tradução...

Esta barra pode possuir um entalhe onde era colocada, por vezes, uma moeda de 1 penny como elemento decorativo – daí o nome deste modelo, em língua inglesa, de “Penny Loafer”) (Figura 3).

his opening in the strap was soon used as a way to add a decorative touch to the usually simple loafer and small objects, such as pennies, were often placed there. A stylistic embellishment that had once been peculiar to Bass’s shoes became synonymous with an entire fashion.

If the translation for "penny loafers" is "sapatos vela", "loafers" can be translated as "sapatos de pala"?

sapatos sem cadarço is probably the best answer, and sapatos vela for the mocassins

Penny loafers are a type of cheap loafers?

In a previous sentence says: "Loafers, mocassins, and oxford shoes, are much like dress shoes..."
So, there must be other name for "penny loafers"
