LAUREN Ralph Lauren Carley

I am very pleased with this purchase. I usually wear a 5.5 and ordered 5.5. The leather is beautiful, very soft. My right shoe feels bigger in the back/heel area than the left, but I experience that with various types of shoes, so not a deal breaker. I was concerned that the logo on the front/top might bother the top of my foot -- I've had that happen with other shoes that have metal buckles, etc. in that area. Not at all! I can't even tell its there. These shoes are very soft and comfortable, almost feel like slippers (I mean that in a good way).

I feel they run half size smaller since I typically wear a size 9 in most shoes and I've tried about 5 different brands and all were narrow except these...but when it comes to "designer" shoes, sometimes I need a 1/2 or 1 size bigger, which may be the case with RLauren. (i.e. I wear a 40.5 or 41 in Loubi's) :D The driving mocs are really nice; soft leather that stretched to a comfortable fit within one day of wearing, soft footbed and pretty decent arch support. I accidentally sprayed the tan ones with water and I dried them with a cool hairdryer and the leather didn't stain with water marks. I am very happy with both pairs (black & tan)and wish they came in red.

These are fantastic loafers but the sizing is wrong. First I ordered the size I wear and they were too long, then I orders half size smaller, now they are too tight. I like the design and especially the soft leather. I wanted them so much but the size doesn't fit so reluctantly have to return them.

These loafers (moccasins) feel soft thanks to good leather. I liked them but size 8 that I wear are made longer than normal. When I tried them on I had my toes far from the front. I might reorder them in size 7.5 if I don't find a better choice as I need comfortable shoes for traveling.
