Review on Bostonian Mens Bolton Loafer Leather Men's Shoes for Loafers & Slip-Ons by Dave Russell

A pair of quality shoes. Firstly if it wasn't for the sizing this would be a 5 star shoe. I wear a 9.5 and this 9.5 is narrow but not in my fingers. It's not a length problem. My fingers fit perfectly. The problem is that they are narrow at the top of the foot. The opening of the boot is not big enough which makes it feel like the top of the boot is pinching my foot and also makes it difficult to slip. I usually use insoles, but that doesn't work with them, they just don't have enough height. Usually the solution would be to increase the size to 10. The problem is that at the actual length of my foot, my feet fit in perfectly. 10 would be too much. I hope they loosen up with some wear. If so, I'll update the review. Otherwise these are great shoes. The quality seems to be top. The design is concise and no frills. Just good cool shoes. Without the size it would easily be 5 stars. ***UPDATE*** I made it in 3 days. 3 days. These shoes are terrible. Absolutely terrible. You will return immediately. Boy should I have waited to see her. I wrote my first review on Monday, actually wore them the next day, Tuesday, and it's now Thursday and they won't be on my feet anymore. I understand that new shoes, and especially dress shoes, can be stiff and uncomfortable when first worn. After 3 days it's just unbearable. I clench my feet so hard that ulcers appear on the top of my right foot. The left pinky feels like something is tearing it off. I took them off every day I wore them simply because I couldn't wear them on my feet anymore. And to top it off? You are unbearably hot and sweaty. Doesn't breathe at all. My previous 3 similar pairs from another brand were excellent. It's hot, steamy, garbage. I will send them back immediately for a refund. I was thinking of a negative update on this review. The shoes seem to have decent reviews so I understand I might be the exception here. But at the end of the day, a review should document and share PERSONAL experiences. And my personal experience has been terrible. The size just doesn't fit. The length and toe box are perfect for a 9.5. But apparently only for people who are 9.5 foot length and one inch tall? 10 would just be too long. Rating downgraded from 4 to 1 star. 1 star just because they created a material barrier between my feet and the ground. Terrible experience. This company should pay me for the inconveniences of suffering after working in these abominations for 3 days.
