Just based on the amount of time I wear them and reality expectations these shoes are a hard average. I wear size 10 shoes, so of course I ordered a size 10. Size 10 is very tight. This is the cutest way I can say they were too cozy. I sent them back and ordered a size 11 two days later. Size 11 is very comfortable. I try to be polite to say that they are still too small. However, they fit, albeit a little uncomfortable, so I choose not to return them again. For the price I'm comfortable in these shoes which are not up to my standards. They're a fraction of the price of toms and bobs and to be honest there aren't many canvas loafers out there for men so I'll keep them and use them sparingly at home. The shoes are also very thin in relation to the size. Height. Not only are my toes resting on the toes of the boot, I can see them sticking out through the fabric. It may be a wear issue as I've only had them for two weeks. They seem to be holding up well so far. Quality stitching and heel provide more support than I thought. Aside from the sizing and fit issue, these are reliable slip-ons. Just be sure to order a size or two larger than you wear.
