I LOVE these ALDO Gwiewen Loafers and wear them to every occasion. If you are looking for some amazing summer shoes, this is a good choice. First let me say the size is almost perfect. I'm usually 10.5m in most shoes and that's true of Gwiewen moccasins. The upper is super soft and breathable and not only feels comfortable but is also very easy to put on and take off. The midsole looks like it's made out of cork, or at least made to look like cork. But it is also very comfortable and helps to keep feet dry. I've only worn Gwiewen loafers without socks and I've never regretted it. Some shoes just make my feet sweat, are uncomfortable and (of course) end up smelling. My feet stayed completely dry in Gwiewen Loafers. The only downside I can think of is that the light color (I have "bones") stains and dirt very easily on both the upper and sole. In the grass it will be a problem, I'm sure. Also, I love these shoes.
