That's shoe (a variation of the "classic" late 1940s Alden tassel loafer) is among a style often called a "kiltie shoes" and has indeed (http://http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9F0CE3DE1039F930A35752C1A9659582 60) a direct heritage to ghillie brogues (Lukas' obvious source of the tassels).
I wore many of these as a child too lazy to tie laces.
Alden continue to make some very nice models (in all widths and lengths) in shell cordovan.
