Maximum Comfort, Excellent Quality - The Cole Haan Howland penny loafer styled driver is the most comfortable slip-on shoe I have ever owned. The tumbled leather is soft and pliable. The interior of the shoe is a molded "cradle" shaped sole that is perfectly cushioned. If you wear a 13 in Donald Pliner, you will take a 13 in this shoe. Well worth the price.
Brands I'd also recommend: Donald Pliner, Taryn Rose

I'm interested , but I think the size. I'm very much interested in a pair of these. I wear a size 13 and your advertisement shows a size 15 as the next biggest size after size 12. I think this is an error on your part. Please let me know if it is so I can order a size 13. Thanks in advance.

This is a great looking spring/summer shoe. I bought it for my son who has trouble with a high instep and yet though tight at first, the soft leather soon gave enough to fit comfortably.

About Cole Haan
Born more than a century ago at the intersection of form and function, Cole Haan has been innovating ever since founder Trafton Cole started making resoleable shoes during the depression. After being bought by Nike in 1988, Cole Haan began introducing footwear with built-in air chambers, utilizing Nike's cutting edge technology to make everything from women's heels to wingtips more comfortable than they'd ever been. Today, the NYC-based brand takes its inspiration from the streets of New York City, offering a range of classic staples with their signature twist—from outerwear and handbags to heels and weekenders—that can stand up to the rigors of the city and still look good.

Cole Haan awesome - This Cole Haan shoe is so comfortable and stylish. I work in NYC everyday where you need to look your best. Now I know this is isn’t the ideal dress shoe. But in the summer it’s alright even in NYC to dress a little casual. So this shoe fits right in. you can wear this shoe as a dress shoe and certainly with cotton pants or jeans. It’s comfortable so I don’t feel like taking them off first thing when I come home from work. And I get compliments on these shoes all the time.
Brands I'd also recommend: im sure there are a few but i dont have that much time to look into that. sorry.

I ordered these for my fiance... just walking around the house with no socks, he said the leather rubbed one of his toes, so I am sending them back. They are good looking shoes though and I will keep ordering other Cole Haans for him to find the perfect fit!

The best loafers - Forget the other loafers that are poorly constructed, don't have any arch support, and rub the skin off the back of your heel. These are the most comfortable loafers I've ever owned. They don't have a wear in period and has great arch support. One thing I will mention is that at the very bottom tip (near the toe), there will grow a slight scuff mark due to its contact with the floor.

Great shoe, BUT they are a quarter of a size too large for me. This left me in quite a quandary, so I decided to just keep them. Might have been a bad decision, but the aesthetic quality of the shoe was too much to turn down.

Howland Penny - Unbelievably comfortable, but a bit delicate. Leather could use a protectant, as it spots with water. Also fragile around edges, gets scuffed easily. I don't expect my loafers to remain pristine, as I wear them out and outside a lot. Great looking shoe. Feels great, too.

Awesome looking pair of loafers. These shoes look, feel, and simply are amazing! I ordered the tan colored ones and they just blew me away. They really stand out with jeans, but you can wear them with shorts also. They are very comfortable and the leather is quite soft. I strongly recommend these. Just for reference: I'm a 7 in Kenneth Cole, 7.5 in Clarks, 8 Ferragamo, and 7.5 in these… so there you go. You will love them!

Most comfortable shoes I've ever owned. For me, they ran 1/2 larger than normal. I ordered a 9 and they were too big. I returned them for an 8 1/2 for a much better fit. They immediately sent me the new size before I returned the ones I ordered. Very pleased.

These shoes run a little small in size but they are very comfortable. I contacted Zappos to swap them out. They were extremely helpful and had my new shoes to my house before I could send the other ones back. This is the first time I have ever used Zappos and I was very pleased with their service. They now have a customer for life.

My absolute favorite shoe ever. I bought a pair a year ago and love them just as much now as I did then. The leather is a very good quality tumbled leather and the looks of these shoes have me constantly looking down at them. They are also one of the most comfortable shoes that I own so I bought a second pair (different style though). The one thing that I must say is that in the front of the shoe the leather begins to scuff since there is no sole in the front. This didn't bother me until the scuff became a hole. I thought it was just me (I have a lazy walk and tend to drag my feet a little) but two of my friends who had the same shoe had the same problem. But while the shoe lasts, it definitely is my favorite and will buy another pair.
