Vintage Venetian Loafer
These are very fine shoes - quickly feel "broken-in". Perfect for my summertime wear!

So they're really comfy. I wound up ordering a half-size down from my Knox boots and both fit me just great. The quality is excellent. I thought the leather was really dry and "thirsty" when I first got them, but some oil on the inside and Venetian creme on the outside seemed to be what they wanted. They look great after you hit them with a horsehair brush. And they are a joy to wear. I will warn you that stepping off of a wet sidewalk onto a marble lobby is a death sentence. I'm going to find a local cobbler to glue a thin rubber sole on them if I can. (of course this is true of any all-leather soled shoe, not just these)
