A classic brand recommended by Twitter's "menswear guy" (iykyk). These feature a very sturdy but comfortable full-grain leather upper for a lifetime of wear. The Goodyear welted sole is in decent condition and should be resolable when they truly wear out by your local cobbler (or, I believe you can ship them back to Allen Edmonds to be "recrafted"). Upper is in excellent condition with one shallow scuff as pictured. The black/touch of brown colorway plus the tassel without the typical kiltie fringe you see on most tassel loafers make this model especially versatile - dress it up in tailoring, or take a more classic elevated casual look by styling with a pair of 501's, an OCBD or turtleneck, and a tweed jacket. I got these on Poshmark but they're a little snug, so my loss is your gain. If it helps on sizing - I wear an 8.5 in Clarks wallabies and Nike Air Forces, but would go up to a 9 for these.
