Review: Excellent bang for the buck! Clarks! Not bad and I'm picky! - I'm kind of picky about my shoes. Great shoes for this price (or really any price!). I've worn Mephisto's and other much more costly shoes and the truth is these Clarks are almost as good in looks, feel and comfort. I say almost because some of the $300+ shoes have softer more supple leather but these "ain't" bad! Really, they have nice leather outers and inners. I returned 2 pairs before settling on these. One was way more and just didn't feel or look right, they were bulky and the others were a little less $$ but I didn't notice until I got them that they were NOT leather but "man made"! Really??? $50 shoes and I have to check to make sure they're not plastic? If you're buying below that price, check the material! I didn't! Anyhow, I returned them. These Clarks were just $60 and as good in quality as the $200 Eccos I returned and the Clarks are sleeker and fit nicely. I wear a 10 almost always and heard these run big so got a 91/2 and that was the right call. These also have the nice soft rubber grip soles which I now HIGHLY prefer! No more clickity clack as I walk on a hard floor! That is so passé! I love the quiet soles and no slipping on slick surfaces. I am very pleased with the very acceptable quality of leather and just as much, I like the way they look! Sleek and dressy but not overly so but can very much be worn with a full black tie suit or with more casual attire but they ARE more suited for more formal wear IMO. Good shoes! A good buy and, for now, Good Bye! 😉
Review: 1st pair I bought was narrow, as I am a true men's size 10 but... - these ran small and narrow. I have worn a size 10 regular width my entire adult life. So when reading these run small on the product web page, I decided to order a size 9.5 and take a chance (a 1st for me since reaching size 10 decades ago.) When they arrived, the length was good, but the width was narrow. So I decided to return and order a size 9.5 wide and when they arrived, they fit well. I decided to keep them. I wear these for work and it is important the fit and comfort is good. I like the feel and fit, but the leather in the toe area is looking a little wrinkled in a relatively short time. Makes them appear older. Perhaps it is the leather? Perhaps they are a tad wide? Not sure, but the regular width size 9.5 was too narrow, so I had to go wide if wanting to try again. Decided on a 5 star review because the vendor was quick to replace the narrow w/ the wider shoe. These are 2nd chance shoes (someone bought and returned for some reason.) They were in excellent condition when they arrived and the price was reduced because they were resale product. I think it is an excellent way to give perfectly good shoes another chance and not discard them simply because someone ordered and returned. Other than the wrinkled leather toe area, I am very pleased w/ these loafers.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ too stiff
*by M***A on March 30, 2024*

Shoe is amazing for the price - looks terrific, made well and seems comfortable enough for standing/walking. However, I started to look for new dress shoes as I am developing a bunion at base of the big toe (and off to the side). These shows pinch down/crease right on top of it when you walk so its painful. Disappointing, as this isn't the shoe's fault - these look amazing and are priced VERY reasonable. Just be aware of issues with bunions if trying these out. If no bunions - GO FOR IT - these are classy shoes
