Customer Reviews Florsheim Berkley Penny Loafers

Hard to get into - This shoe does not have a smooth surface inside it. It is very difficult to slip on comfortably if your socks are not smooth also. Using a shoe horn is of little help, the sock tends to bunch up on the toe, and cramps the toes. If you can successfully get the shoe on without the sock cramping up the toes, it is not uncomfortable to wear.

This shoes are a complete waste of money ! The sole separated from the shoe after hardly any use. Do not buy!!

I wear a 12 D. Generally Florsheims work well for me. This pair, however, is really tight and uncomfortable -- no, actually they hurt, so will be returned when I get around to it. They look good, though. Probably will order a larger size.

Not a good shoe. The seams already busted and I got them wide, but in 3E they were not. Very disappointed being a large footed person, but I will probably not ever buy again because of the fitting issue. I also bought a black pair that is too tight as well, but we were in the process of moving so I couldn't return.

Love the fit but the shoe has started to separate from the sole.

Take your money elsewhere. These have the right look, especially in Burgundy, but they are the most cheaply constructed shoes I've ever owned. The leather is cardboard like, coated in shiny plastic. You don't so much polish them as wipe polish onto a non-absorbent man made surface. The heel fell off two weeks after I got them. After less than a few months of wearing them twice/week, they have started to tear right at the beef roll. For inexpensive 'weejuns', look at Sebago Classics, J&M Skimocs, or Bass instead. Zappos service, in contrast to the disappointment of this shoe, was fantastic as always.

'Have bought Florsheim's loafers for years, but can't find the ones I bought most recently, bought the Berkley and hate them. The unlined inside is rough and pulls socks to the point of pain. Stiff, unyielding leather means I may never get these broken in. Great looking, but horrible shoes. Bought the Riva and LOVE them! Lined, soft and comfortable from the get-go. Zappos service is top notch, they have a customer for life, I suspect.
