When received and the shoe box was opened, BOTH shoes had very obvious/observable quality defects which should've been caught before shipping or ever put into a box. On one shoe, the leather covering was actually very noticeably peeling off the back of one heel and BOTH shoes had machine scuff marks on the "tongue" of the loafers. The shoes were never even on my feet. I must say that when I called, I was immediately sent a return label. The shoes were taken to UPS for shipping and replacement early the next morning. This is the first time I've had an issue with any Florsheim shoes...disappointing as I ordered online directly from your company! I await the, hopefully, better-inspected pair of shoes and a quicker turnaround time to receive them!!!

For many years I used to " Live" in this very comfortable shoes. I used to get it from Store on 34th street. No more Store is closed.
However, now still I can get it By Mail...good I ordered two, because I am sure of your products.
Sorry, I send them back because I could not put my foot in any of them ( Does Not Fit).
Now I have a problem where I can find the trust & comfort I used to have with Florsheim.

I have been wearing Florsheim shoes for 30-35 years and have always loved their quality and durability. This is why I have been so saddened by my recent experience. The Berkley penny-loafers that I recently ordered had some sort of film on them that started flaking off them after just the first wearing. Underneath this film was "raw" leather, which did not have the polish of regular shoes. I had never seen anything like it. I exchanged the shoes for an identical pair, hoping this was an isolated incident. The exact same thing happened on the second pair. The customer service representatives were very nice and I have been able to return the shoes for a refund. However, I am so disappointed that I am not able to continue to wear what until now had been my favorite shoe.

The shoe would not fit on my footband was the same size as a boot that i bought at the same time and the boot is a little big. Florsheim needs to size consistently.

I'm not sure if I've received a defective pair because the right shoe is significantly bigger than the left (which fits perfectly). Thank goodness for amazing customer service & easy return. They look wonderful visually.

The size is different. Same size purchased for more than 50 years is too small
leather is not of the same quality. After two weeks wear, the sides appear to be cracking
One of the shoes has began to make a popping noise when walking.
Over all very disappointed with the shoes!

Wore these shoes for two hours. I live and work in NYC, within one commute and one meeting the finish has started pealing off. Like skin with a bad sunburn. Totally unacceptable. This is the second time I have purchased this shoe and this was not the case with the last pair.

Wore this shoe 1x to a one day conference. By that evening, black finish on top of toe area cracked and peeled off. Almost seemed as though the finish was spray painted on. Never had this happen before. Presume Florsheim quality control has dropped; previous version held up much better. Very dissatisfied.

Terrible performance - lasted all of 5 months before the uppers separated from the sole. Even my Cooper said to go with another brand before putting on new soles.

The shine looks to artificial like if it is sprayed. Not recommended despite all the good reviews written.

I have worn this Florsheim loafer for 30 years - it was a no brainer, take them out of the box and perfect fit, not any more! I ordered a pair a couple months ago and could not even get them on my foot- same size, style and model. I figured they were just mismarked and returned them. Just ordered the same thing again and had the same result. I take ae "E" width and these seem like a "B". The soles are no longer leather either. It is pretty low when old , reputation companies, leverage their good name, cheapen their product and take advantage of loyal customers! I AM DONE WITH FLORSHEIM!!
P.S. Check the date on the positive reviews.

I just don't like the shoes. What was advertised online is different from what I received.

This is my 3rd and final try with this shoe. The leather sole wears through in < 3 months if you wear it 5 days / week. The sole on this one actually came unsewed after 4 months. Very disappointing.

Shoes purchased for business/work. Shoes received were wrong size, clearly too tight. I have been a 10 1/2 for years and slightly narrow foot so get a C width when is available rather than a D. I have purchased other shoes recently at 10 1/2 and they fit fine, The left shoe here was so tight I almost could not even put it on. The right shoe also was tight but probably would have broken in ok eventually. But had to return the shoes because the left one was un manageable. Shoes made in India. I found out when I went to return ship the shoes that I had to pay UPS about $12 for the shipping. Very disappointing. I will not order shoes from Florsheim again.
Disappointed,

This shoe is not high quality. I purchased in October 2015 and the sole is already separating from the upper.

Florsheim is not what they used to be. Leather is paper thin. Can see my toes pushing the top up every time take a step. Very disappointing and going back.

Great looking shoes but quality is highly suspect. The pair I received had part of the stitching falling apart. In addition, the leather was already cracking at the top. In short, I had to return them and am not getting a replacement pair. It was either poor quality of the product or poor quality control by the company in letting this pair of shoes get shipped.
