Narrow in the toe box for me and made the shoe look misshapen.

This was a very good looking and sturdy loader. Leather was soft, color nice, and good arch support. Unfortunately my foot was just slightly too wide, and I didn’t like how that affected the line of the shoe. My top instep seemed to be spilling out to the side a bit. Sadly, I had to return these. I think they’d work well for others though. I’m generally a medium width, but loafers tend to be cut narrow, so maybe I need a wide width in this style shoe?

These are super cute and a perfect fit (size 6). Am returning because the rubber heel did not go completely to the edge of the shoe making them feel wobbly and like I could perhaps twist my ankle. I have tendonitis in my ankle and need perfectly flat shoes.

The back of the shoe was too high and rubbed up on my ankles.

These shoes look nice but they are too tight for me

This is a lovely shoe, well made and great suede. It was just what I was looking for. Unfortunately, it was too tight in the toe box for me and it doesn't come in a half size bigger.

Nicely made and good looking shoe. A real plus that it's waterproof. Sorry I had to return it. The toe box is angled down in the front so too little room for my toes. Also too narrow in front; I need more room for my feet that are wide in front.

Nice quality but too big and I fear the next size down would be too small. I ordered a 7 1/2 and usually wear that or an 8, never a 7. Otherwise nice, but obviously not a fit for my foot.

It really makes me crazy when shoe makers make larger sizes and just make them longer. The proportions in a size 10 seemed off aesthetically. The upper was shorter than pictured and the opening was very narrow. It was as if they just made the foot bed longer and didn't take proportions into account. These just look dumb and I couldn't get my foot into them. I don't wear wide shoes as they are too big.

These felt like house slippers. House slippers that have been worn for a few months. There's no support at all from the sides of the shoes, which are too stretchy and soft, and leave a gap on the top sides. Also, the heel is a little narrower than the sole of the shoe, so if you think you're walking on flats, and your balance isn't perfect, I can imagine twisting an ankle.
On the up side, they are soft! And they're not hideous. Going back, obviously.

I was very excited to get these shoes as I am a teacher and needed comfort as well as waterproof for our climate. After about a month of light to moderate wear (maybe 1-2 times per week), the shoes got a hole in them (see picture below). I contacted Blondo customer service directly and they told me to go back to where I purchased them. Fortunately, Zappos has a much better customer service philosophy and will exchange the shoes. Thank you Zappos. I will be purchasing shoes from you again, but not likely to purchase a pair of Blondo shoes.

These were a huge disappointment! The white stitching around the toe is too tightly sewn and so it causes the suede to wrinkle all around the toe bed. I tried on one of them anyway and they are true to size and the comfort is okay, but for a $100 pair of shoes, these look like a cheap pair from a drug store! I've honestly never seen such flaws. Hopefully this is the only pair like this .... I wanted to like these, but they go back today.
