SAS

Side Gore Slip On Comfort Loafer

Men's

Purchased SAS brand, Side Gore model. Shoes fit perfectly, and have a good balance between flexibility and support. Uppers leather nice feel and look - the cordovan coloring is uniform and a nice tone, and the surface pebbling adds a refined touch vs smooth leather. I bought a pair of this same model four and a half years ago, and with wear on average of three days per week, the soles are still intact but are quite worn... which is the reason I bought this new pair. I specifically bought the pair last time to wear when out walking on city streets, doing shopping, and as my main "more than casual but not quite dress" shoe when travelling - and have been happy with the level of wear.

Pricey, good looking men's shoes. My son wore them to the office 10 months and 2 weeks and the leather is coming away from the sole at the arch along the inside of the shoe. He has a desk job in an office so no idea what caused this but for the price I expect much better wear than this. Sadly, they are going back.

I have worn SAS shoes for the past 35 or so years. I have this exact pair that's at least 20 years old, but starting to show it's age. Yes SAS last that long. I live in Texas and have always just driven to San Antonio to their factory store and purchased my shoes. But it's about two hours away and I always spend too much money when I go. SAS doesn't discount it's shoes with anyone. But they are worth every penny you spend.

I have bought SAS shoes since 1985, have recommended them 100's of times. I have walked on cement floors for 40 years, after many of those years I decided to get me a pair of SAS shoes, knowing that I needed something that would support my feet and my body as everything rides on them just like a good car tire. I don't bye cheap tires because I want to ensure I have the best considering the values that rides on them, my feet I consider the same. When I've worked a 12 hour day on concrete and go home my feet don't hurt, my back doesn't hurt, that is money well invested. I have a pair of the gore loafers on as I write this note that are more than 5 years old worn every other day, still polish up brand new. Before I bought SAS shoes I was going through a pair of shoes every 4 to 6 months.

This is the second pair I am buying for my boyfriend. I bought the first pair 2 years ago and he hasn't stopped wearing them since. He wears them in the garden, taking trail hikes, doing chores, and to the office.He is able to get them looking like new again after getting them muddy and dusty , but I bought him a second pair so he could have a clean pair for the office.
