If you (or anyone else) want to try loafers on a budget, I’m happy to sell my practically unworn Peter Christian oxblood penny loafers.
They’ve had a rubber half sole put on from new, and show almost no heel wear. Only the first or second creases appearing on the uppers, so better condition than a pair found in TK Maxx!
Handmade, and bargain £125 new price. I’ll take £35 posted, of anyone’s money. Or a near offer.
They are very comfortable. I bought them, wore them to a lunch somewhere and then boxed and forgot about them. I have too many pairs of shoes, and not enough formal opportunities.

That's a crazy size range. I'm surprised that all those brands are so different in the way they size things but I guess they all have their methods and reasoning.
Don't go to the trouble of measuring them just yet. Despite my ideas that I should start to look a bit more put together, the smartest shoes I wear are either Clarks Weavers or Red Wing Chukkas (so smart is a loose term). Most of the time I'm in Vans. If I'm going to dip my toe into the water of penny loafers, I should probably start by trying cheaper versions before jumping into Yuketens (as much as I'd love to)
