User Reviews
After much searching, these were the best priced leather loafers I could find. Lengthwise, they fit true to size. However, the width seemed on the narrow side. They seem to be a good quality, so I decided to purchase stretchers to widen the narrow spots. After a few days in the stretchers, they fit perfectly. Despite the width issues, I feel these are a really great deal and I am happy with my purchase.
These are really comfortable and good-looking shoes, but they seem to run very large. I ordered an 11, which is usually on the roomy/comfortable side, and I can't even keep them on my feet. Didn't try them on in time, and now have to keep them and improvise instead of returning.
Great shoes, very comfortable and they look great with a number of outfits.
Only had been wearing for 2-3 months and the paten started peeling off and the soles have cracked. Poor quality for a high price and they’re not that comfortable
Love the shoe and quality. However,your heel will slip out, even with slipper socks or bare feet. . Think smaller than your regular size. I wear normally a 9.5 I ordered 8.50 still to big.
I bought these shoes to have some casual, comfortable, but stylish shoes to wear to work with my outfits. They are so cute and comfortable that I have been wearing them almost everyday. No break-in required. They were comfortable from Day 1.
I was really excited to receive these shoes. I have been looking for loafers for a size 5 wide for a month now. I ordered a size 5 wide like usual and the reviews were saying the shoes are even too wide. Thye still did not fit. It was so tight in the toes that I could not get my heel in the back. I returned them and got a size 5.5 wide. They too were too narrow. These shoes are really cute and great quality but they just did not fit.
It is petfect for working hours when I need to walk to several different places...
