Customer Reviews J.Crew Ryan Penny Loafers in Leather

Nice penny loafers in the style of Cole Haan. Traditional Penney loafer style, roomy toe box, nice brown color, true to size. It's about time Crew got into traditional shoes.

I normally wear and 8.5 in everything except athletic shoes when I wear a 9. These are quality so my feet don’t get that synthetic leather sweaty feel that happens with some more cheaply made shoes. I’m in my feet at the courthouse and constantly going up and down stairs; these were incredibly comfortable - even on the first wear. Will definitely purchase in another color.

These shoes were comfortable right out of the box. They have a rounder toe box than other loafers I've had; this made for a more comfortable fit.

Such cute and comfortable loafers! I wear between an 8.5 and a 9 and the 8.5 fit perfectly!

This is THE best shoe i have ever purchased. So soft and comfy, didn’t need breaking in. I wear a size 7 in heels, but like my flats a bit looser so i got them in 7.5 and they fit PERFECTLY. Amazing!

Love these loafers in a 1/2 size larger than normal -- the leather is thick and firm, not floppy, which gives the shoes great structure for fall and winter. I appreciate the fact that they're leather lined, which is getting harder to find but helps so much with overall comfort and durability. These shoes are well worth the money -- I wish they came in navy or red!

soft leather, comfortable fit. Overall very nice loafer

Great quality leather, feels good on

Love them! Bought for an interview. Leather is very soft and they have been comfortable without having to wear them in at all. Nice quality shoe!

These were cute! I did not end up keeping them as I found that the Sam Edleman loafers were higher quality (and of course more expensive) but they were very cute. I have wider feet and they did feel a bit snug, but I think would have loosened up over time.

These shoes are so soft, and I love the clean lines (though they did see a bit more plane in person than online). Unfortunately, I just can't imagine wearing these all day. There is absolutely no arch support, and they're so, so narrow I could hardly get them on! Sadly, I'll be returning them.

Was looking for more of the 1950's style loafer. This particular shoe had a longer toe than I liked. The leather was very nice. Perhaps a bit large but not a half size larger. It was the style that I didn't care for.

I bought these for my daughter as part of a birthday gift. She looked great in them, felt very comfortable and they were true to size.

Great shoe! I was nervous about buying these after reading the reviews, but I’m happy to report that they look nice and fit comfortably. I should say up front that I have a somewhat narrow foot, so I had zero issues with the width. I also have a narrow heal and usually have to use heel grips in my shoes, but the heals fit perfect. The leather is stiff, but not uncomfortable. I would agree with the reviewer who noted that the coloring of the leather is less impressive in person, just a typical flat british tan. Still cute though. I usually wear a 7.5 or 8 and went with a 7.5 for these.

Soooo happy with these shoes. They were comfortable right out of the box. Perfect fit, ordered my regular size. Very stylish. Quality materials. Love the look of them. Super happy.

I’m very pleased with these shoes. They are comfortable right out of the box, stylish, good quality and a great price for such a nice loafer. Would love to have them in another color.

This is a very nice loafer with beautiful leather. It is well constructed and feels like it will wear well. Sadly I'm returning because the shoe comes up just a little too high on the outside and hits my ankle bone.

Nice looking loafer. I wish I could have kept them, unfortunately the heel was too wide for my feet, and I couldn’t keep them on.

I really wanted to like the Pecan color, but it was much lighter than appeared on my screen - just wasn't very pretty. It also didn't fit my feet particularly well but I think I could have made it work if the color was what I'd expected. The leather is really nice and "solid", not flimsy or thin. Was going to reorder in the black, but they are out of my size and the price was almost double!

These are beautiful shoes, incredibly well made but they are only for those with narrow feet. I wore these around the house for 2 days and could not imagine they would “stretch” to my width, sadly they have been returned. I am a size 8.5 in most shoes, order in 8.5 and length they fit, but even had I ordered a half size up the width would have still been an issue.

Only returning because the toe box was too tight. The general fit was fine.

I was looking for the old-style penny loafers from around 1959. This is not it.

Just looked a bit plain so returned.

It is a beautiful shoe, very comfortable. But the pair I received in 8.5 had a synthetic sole, different from the too small size 8 pair that had a leather sole. The synthetic sole just felt less solid. Unsure why the two pairs were different...
