This style with a black sole?
I'm looking for this style of shoe with a black sole. Does anyone know of anything or know if it's possible to dye the soles?

thats a suede loafer. dying soles sounds like a lot of work (if it even sticks), better just to find a version you like.
gh bass, rancourt, meermin, allen edmonds, jcrew all do loafers
I haven't been able to find a flat, thick sole in this style with a black sole anywhere
dye won't hold on these. other DIY options will likely look v messy & leave the stitching white regardless.
shucks
Id encourage you to check out some of the brands raisin listed - these bad boys are pretty firmly dress sneakers, and they don't do the 'dress' or 'sneaker' parts very well
I checked all of them, and none of them have a flat sole like that
cans does this but more vans like
Orchard Skateshop
