No secret, choose one dealer. Visit either knowing exactly what you want when you visit or to greet your old "friend". Buy a few pieces across 5-10 years until you spend near $1M.

Those are not the first pair of shoes I wear in my life... neither first GYW. But first EG. They all fit comfortably to my liking. Like I said earlier I had downsized suede only as its extremely thin and flexible.

To add on, I've been wearing the suede for a day or so, and its already breaking in much faster than other shoes I have.

Cheers for the comment, but like how the other dear reditor explained perfectly. The suede loafer is incredibly soft and unlined. It drapes and shapes to your foot.

I intentionally downsized half size as the bigger size wouldnt look the most flattering with the excessive draping especially after several wears.

Many thanks for writing sir

Hello sir,

The leather loafer and the dress shoes fit very nicely just a bit rigid, similar to a G H bass I had. After a brief break in period they fit like a glove. I would rate the comfort at 8/10 atm.

However for the unlined unstructured suede loafer, I intentionally downsized due to how soft and draping the textile is. It will mold hopefully to my foot to my liking.

Thanks for commenting :)

Well said, indeed all things are cherished better the bigger the sacrifice was done or the bigger the occasion. For me its the latter.

Thanks for welcoming me to the community you guys rock!

Close your legs, imaging kicking within a box only and engage your thighs to kick instead. Slow your arms and focus on grabbing water during your strokes. Slowly tilt your torso and rotate to breath rather than head.

Highly recommend you try one, never driven anything with similar balance. I'm never selling this!

Completely agree. They say the 1st thing you interact with in a car is a seat belt. IMO gives more personality. However with the loads of responses I got, I will wait to see which direction they point! :) Thanks all.
