I ordered my usual size and a size down but neither fit right. Like other reviews mentioned, the toe area is very tight but the heel area is loose. There is some nice padding at the bottom of the shoe that makes it comfortable, but the edges of the shoe were digging into my ankle so I had to return them.

Franco Sarto uses to fit me perfectly. Now I can't even get my feet in them. After getting 2 different sizes they still do not work and I am so upset.

I have always been a "true 9" - never up or down, never narrow or wide. This fit, however, is a bit narrow in the front. It's not horrific but b/c I love the style to much i'm hoping they will give a bit. Also, i thought these were black and they looks black until they were in direct sunlight outside and then i noticed they were actually a very dark navy.

I love these shoes and am disappointed I will have to send back. I always wear a franco sarto 7.5 and cannot get my wide foot into this shoe. I do really want to have a pair of platform loafers for work and will have to try something else.

Very cute and seemed to be good quality. They are extremely narrow. Hard to believe that anyone's foot can fit into these.

felt true to size but heel box was too big . Heel kept slipping as I walked, but a smaller size would not have worked in the toe box.

Shoes were not midnight they were practically black in all lights there was a very small tinge of blue. They ran entirely tooooo narrow in the heel and the toes with no room for anything but blisters, def not a walking shoe or a light walking in office shoe.

If you have narrow heels, do not buy. Heel slips constantly. Hard to walk in these strangely designed shoes. Wore them a couple times and cannot wear them anymore. Wish I could return.

They are suppose to be midnight blue, but to me they look black. I tried several rooms with different lighting and I just see black. So not for me.

I wanted these shoes to work SO bad! Super cute, super comfy, but the heel is gigantic! I mean they wore like flip flops. Returning. ?

So I bought this loafer in July (writing this review in September) and I LOVED them - purchased in the putty color. they were super comfortable and stylish. However like some of the other reviewers this pair is unwearable now. The sole on the bottom of the shoe has split. It's a bummer because I really liked these shoes and I have a lot of other styles from Franco Sarto and never had this issue before (I own several pairs of the Eda loafer, a pair of Stevie boots and some sneakers and pumps from FS as well) with any of my other shoes from Franco Sarto. Seems like it could be a design flaw? In any case, for the two months I could ear these they were awesome.

The shoes are beautiful. Its just that I ordered the 10wide and they are still too narrow. Its weird my feet are scrunched in at the widest part of my foot. And they are to long so my heal slips up and down when I walk in them. I wish they frit because yes they are a lovely looking shoe.

I really love the look of the shoes but my heels slip out of them and they aren't very comfortable to wear.

I loved these shoes until they completely fell apart after wearing them for only a few months. The material on the top of the shoe separated, so it was like a clear cellophane looking top layer and you could see the shiny part underneath like it fell away. The sole on one shoe also completely split apart, which was insane because I literally wore these to work at a nice gallery maybe once or twice a week... It's not like I was jogging around or kicking things or walking over gravel. I was completely thrown by the terrible quality of this shoe.

Synthetic Upper?!!! from Franco Sarto? for me that speaks of lesser quality as well as not being breathable.

I can't believe how tight these shoes are. I even checked the box to see if it was the right size.

I love these shoes, but like other reviewers have stated, they are too narrow in the toe box and too big in the heel. I’ve tried different socks and even added a shoe pad for the heel- nothing works. Unfortunately, I have to return them.

Folks are right, this shoe runs narrow. Way too narrow for me. I tried one shoe and immediately took it off, wrapped it up and sent back. Shame, as they're really cute!

At first very comfortable, I tried 2 different no show socks but they kept falling down and gave the worst ankle blisters.

Pretty to look at. Vinyl does not give and the shoe ran line a double A narrow. It was a medium. Having sold shoes I know if the shoe pinches or you have to squeeze in you will never wear it. I think shoe manufacturers are having a tough time with quality control pattern and fit. I know if I want to wear leather I will pay 200.00. Shoes made of vinyl do not breath. They look good for one season. The plastic cracks. Leather is like skin and can last for years.

I wear almost nothing but Franco Sarto shoes; loafers, in particular. These shoes were not cheap and they are so uncomfortable, I will never wear them again. Tight, peculiar arch support that hurt more than helped, and an overall poor fit. Definitely not the way my other size 10s fit. Very disappointed, especially for the price.
