I would have to agree that these shoes run about a half size too big. I usually wear a 6 or 6.5 and had to return the size 6 for a size 5.5. Leather is soft and comfortable right away. I have bunions and don't have any issues with wearing these shoes all day and walking several miles.

These Sam Edelman shoes are exactly as pictured. The fit, however, is narrow and runs large. I normally wear an 8. I should have sized down to a 7 or 7 1/2. Packaged nicely. Would definitely purchase again, just a smaller size. I am very pleased with the shoe overall.

The shoe was too long and too wide for my foot. Consider a smaller size than normal. I personally couldn't try a smaller size because they didn't have it in stock.

I love this loafer. Because of the print which is only coating, I have already nicked the toe. Bummer.

Wanted these shoes from the moment I saw them! Beautiful fabric, very comfortable, love that they have half sizes beyond a 9. Gave 4 stars because I think the sole on these loafers could be more sturdy, thicker. The sole is very flexible which will probably lead to tired feet by the end of the day.

Love the simple and classy look of these loafers. I like the simplicity of the decorative hardware which adds a nice touch of contrast. I ordered an 8.5 in black and it fits perfectly. It is comfortable and I wear it nearly everyday. The only thing that kept me from giving it 5 stars is that the cushion for one's soles would be better if it was a bit more padded.

Beautiful shoe that fits largely well. It has little arch support so I don’t know if I’d choose them to be out all day. It’s a smidge large so I’ll use a cushion strip on the back seam to add more padding since I don’t plan on using them with socks.

I typically wear a size 7 but these were too big and too wide for my foot. I loved the style and color, but put them on and immediately put them back in the box and returned them for a refund. I gave a one-star review for comfort cause I did not wear them but maybe 2 minutes.

Comfortable but run about a size larger. I'm usually between a 5 and 5.5, sometimes even a 6 and the 5 was huge on me. Purchased 4.5 and they fit well. They do run a smidge narrow fyi.

Beautiful shoe and great quality but sadly had to return. I had tried my normal size in a store and my heel was slipping out so I ordered a half size smaller. The smaller pair were too tight. I wish it could've worked out.

I bought the Loraine Bit Loafer in Raspberry Velvet. The color is truly unique and gorgeous. However, as for fit, I should have listened to other reviewers about what size to order. I normally wear an 8.5 wide, so that's the size I ordered. The width was fine but it was entirely too long. After reading the reviews, it seemed like returning it for a 1/2 size smaller (8 wide) would work. So that's what I did. Still too long! The shoe still slips up and down as I walk. I guess I should return it and try a 7.5 wide, but I just want to wear the silly things and not keep sending stuff back in the mail. Instead I'm going to use insoles to take up some room and/or add heel pads. Other than the problems with fit, it is a gorgeous shoe and, at least initially, seems to be well made. I hope the added insole and padding will make it more snug. Also, others have noted NOT to go a 1/2 size or a full size down if you have high arches. I have high arches and I still needed the smaller size. YMMV.

I ordered an 8.5 wide and absolutely loved them and while the width was perfect, they were too big. Order a half size down if ordering a wide size.

The Classic Nude color was lighter than the color appeared on screen. I returned for the Cedarwood while it was available. Hopefully they will come out with additional warm beige/neutral colors in the future. I wear a 7-7.5 in shoes and boots, depending on the shoe. (My feet measure as a 7 in length.) I take a 6.5 in the Loraine. Very beautiful shoe with soft leather. I have medium width feet, and the width of the 6.5 (i.e., sized down) is perfectly snug. Zero blisters or rubbing. I thought there was too much of a gap (visually) in the 7.

Beautiful, but size runs a bit large. Will have to return them to see a half size smaller works.

I originally ordered an 8W (my normal size). When I received them they had about a finger-width gap between the back of the shoe and my heel. I made the decision to get a 7W, and the shoe length is much closer to my size. I don't know that I would say these are a true wide. I assume Sam Edelman shoes run fairly narrow, and I would say the wide width probably puts the shoe at a medium width. Overall, I like the style and am willing to compromise on the width, as I know the leather will likely stretch out. If you have an average/slightly wide or narrow foot, I would recommend. If you have really wide foot, pass on these.

These are pretty cute. I ordered the Raspberry velvet and should have heeded the advice to size down a half size.

Very stylish shoes. Sizing is very difficult to get right. I wear 6/6.5 in some brands, or 7 Nikes. I tried 6w, 6.5w, 6.5reg. None of these were perfect for my foot but the 6.5 reg fit the best with no-show socks, cannot go barefoot without my heel slipping out. I think 6reg might be too narrow but I didn’t try it. I tried the wide because my toes are wide but my heel is narrow and the wides are wide all over and foot won’t stay in them. Zappos is the best though when it comes to service and trying on sizes.

A timeless, sophisticated loafer. So much more comfortable than I thought they would be! I tried wearing the no show socks and although they were comfortable, the heel part kept pulling down. So when I wore them without socks, my feet made fart sounds when I walked bc the air lol. Other than that I have no complaints! I went up 1/2 a size and I'm so glad I did

Decent shoe with moderate comfort, but the leather creased a lot after the first wear, which was a little disappointing because I wanted a loafer with more "structure." & it's annoying how easily the insole comes out when I take the shoes off. I have a few pairs of [cheaper] loafers that didn't crease nearly as bad (after YEARS of wear) & the insoles stay put, so I guess I just expected more from the Loraine loafer.
I'd also recommend:
