Excellent fit and finished office shoes. Run a tiny bit on the narrow side...
Excellent shoes. This particular model a decades-old proven design that works particularly well for smaller feet.Came just a tiny bit on the narrow side (I bought 6.5 regular, when my perfect size is 6.5 E - 'wider'). Fixed that by fitting them cedar shoe trees modified to stretch the shoes a bit (inserted s clothespin so they remain wide at the toes). After that, they fit like a literal glove and are not just elegant, but very comfortable for walking short distances. They do demand shoe horns when putting them on, but so does all fine leather loafers / moccasins that you want to preserve in good shape for years on end.

Fit Like a Glove
I bought these for my husband because I liked the style, and also remembering that Florsheim is known for making shoes with exceptional fit, even for those with odd shoe sizes. I asked dear hubby what his actual foot size is, since he always has to buy a larger or smaller size in the stores because no one carries his particular size. He told me, but was skeptical that an on-line purchase would be successful. When the shoes arrived, he tried them on and walked off with them. Later, I asked how they fit. A man of few words, he replied, "Like a glove." These are the finest shoes (outside of some really great cowboy boots) that he has had since we were married (30 years). They look fabulous whether at church, a social event, or shopping at Home Depot. We will be back for more!

These are the best Loafers, PERIOD!
These Florsheim Loafers are the best! Even though they are no longer made in the U.S.A. I have tried dozens of alternatives and they just don't match these for fit, wear, comfort and style. The materials and workmanship are second to none as well. The soles usually last the better part of the year, even with my excessive walking. The upper part of the shoe always lasts long enough for at least one "re-sole" at my local cobbler. And talk about value... you just can't beat the price. Comparable shoes would cost around five times more at a custom shop!

Watch out for slick sole
I have petty much always worn Florsheim shoes. I ordered these as an older pair I own started to show signs of "fatigue". This shoe is well made and as I have not had a chance to wear them a lot, they're still a little "stiff". The main thing I need to say is that when you first put them on, BE CAREFUL. The soles on these shoes are highly polished and very slippery, especially if you're on a carpet. They would be great if you decided to dance the Electric Slide. I would recommend roughing them up with a little sand paper or putting them on and then scuffing them on the sidewalk or driveway before wearing them or you may be embarking on a dangerous mission.

Wide width is not wide
Shoe quality is very good. The sole is leather which you seldom see in shoes of this price point. My major complaint is that they are advertised as wide width and they are from it. Should you choose this design which I truly like and have been wearing for40 years and need a Xtra wide width, go for 1 size larger. I would have returned but needed them right away for a dress occasion.
