Customer Reviews Sam Edelman Loraine

I usually wear a 7.5 or 8. I ordered these in a 7.5 and could not get my foot in them at all. They were beautiful and I loved the color. I am reluctant to order again because I don’t know whether to go up a half size or full size. If I could have gotten them onmy feet I would have kept them.

The sizing on these loafers is very frustrating. I tried 4 different colors/materials in two sizes - 7.5M and 8M. I am a 7.5 or 8 in most shoe and sneakers brands, with a higher arch and instep. My feet are on the narrower side but I wear medium width. In general these shoes are narrow yet long, and the top/tongue is very stiff and unyielding, making it difficult to get the shoe on (in either size!). The leather styles (I tried black and nude) are soft to the touch, but ultimately the fit was completely off. The 7.5 was impossible to get on and uncomfortable (runs small). While the 8 was a bit easier to slide on (while still stiff across the tongue), it somehow runs a 1/2 size too long in the toe box. Initially I thought the 8 would work, so I simply sat in them for about 15 minutes like I might at the office, and the top/tongue on the 8 in leather cut into my foot leaving deep impressions after just *sitting* in them. The fabric styles are even stiffer and have additional stitching making them unbearable to wear. Unfortunately I'm sending them all back.

Used item: scuffed, wrinkled leather, scuffed bottom. Otherwise, I love them. Returning.

Material isnt great.

I have two other pairs of the Lorraine loafer and they fit perfectly in size 6. This pair in a six is far too long. Very disappointed. I wonder if they’re making them larger. I am afraid to order a smaller size. It might be too tight.

In the first month of wearing, they looked terrible and wrinkled. The leather didn’t wear well at all. I wore them once for a work day and they became completely worn. They are comfortable though.

The shoes are comfy but they look USED. The sole and heel show wear and insole shows some wear as if worn barefoot Very disappointed that they were marketed to me as new and I paid full price for worn shoes.

Loved the shoe. It was too wide across the instep.

Love the shoe, but it was too wide and too large.

I was a little disappointed when I received the shoes. I already have 2 pairs of this style and they fit well. This one felt narrower and smaller.

Long pointy toes...felt like an elf or a witch in these shoes. Leather is soft and supple, the heel was especially comfortable and flexible compared with many stiff loafers. My feet are more like Fred Flintstone's than Wilma's and the pointy toe box in no way conforms to the shape of my feet. Total fail...Returned

Surprised by how much larger, mostly longer, this shoe was compared to others of the same brand.

the fit was good and comfortable but the silver finish scraped off right away in the first week.
