Loafers are my absolute favourite shoes! I love the sneaker trend on other people but it just doesn’t feel right for me.
Really tempted by the GH Bass. I can’t tell from the website, do they have those little stretch inserts at the sides? I have a very high instep and some loafers are a no-go for that reason.
Also true story, a pair of not-sufficiently-broken-in loafers (and too much traipsing around the city) once gave me a blister that turned into an infection so bad I needed IV antibiotics 🤦🏼♀️ My husband still asks if I’m bringing “sensible shoes” every time we pack for a trip now.
Would you also say, they last longer by getting rubber heels and outsole put on/replaced as needed by your local cobbler? I am a hard walker and I can’t advocate shoe maintenance enough!
Absolutely! I can't emphasise enough how much longer items in your wardrobe last when you take care of them. I usually replace outsoles every couple of years, depending on wear, and take them for a buff/polish once a year. If you're in New York and need shoe repair recommendations, let me know! :)
