For a $600+ shoe this is...decent. Shape is great, and I found the full strap wasn't as distracting as in other loafers. I think the LHS Cordovan are "better" because their fit is more amenable to thicker socks, and they're less likely to crease at the top. Secondhand, these are a good buy sub-$100 and a steal under $50 which I've seen happen.

bought size 8, it fits True

One of those Alden guys. Sizing is a bit weird in these but I was afraid of going too large for heel slip. I probably could go up 1/2-1 size and be fine (I’m a 10 in New Balance). Quality is unmatched and the suede is gorgeous.

Alden full strap calf loafers - "full strap" and "calf" tend to get hate from menswear enthusiasts but given the price of leisure handsewn these are a great alternative. Try on in store if at all possible.
