DEBORAH | Chunky loafers you step into
DEBORAH | Chunky loafers you step into
I step into them at the door and I am gone. No sitting down, no laces, no hunting for a shoehorn.
The shoes that actually get worn are the ones by the door that go on standing up. Everything else, however much you like it, loses to the pair you can put on while holding a bag and your keys. The trouble is that most slip-ons are thin underfoot, so the convenience costs you the comfort.
These do not make that trade. The sole is chunky, which puts real cushioning between you and the pavement and gives a little height at the same time, and the upper is a plain loafer shape that reads as smart rather than sporty. Seven colors, from black and brown through pink, blue, green and red.
Why women our age keep coming back to them
- On and off standing up. No laces and no closure to fasten, which matters more than it should on a day with four errands in it.
- The thick sole is the comfort. A chunky sole is what lets a slip-on be worn for hours instead of a short trip to the car.
- They do not look like gym shoes. The loafer shape is plain enough for lunch out, which is rarely true of a comfortable slip-on.
- Seven colors. Black and khaki if you want them to disappear, red or green if you do not.

How they fit
True to size, in US 6 through 13. Because there is no fastening, the fit is set by the size you choose, so if you are between two, take the larger one and wear a slightly thicker sock rather than buying down and hoping they stretch.

A few recent reviews
I cannot bend to tie laces since my surgery. These have become the shoes I own.

Thicker sole than I expected and it makes a real difference on hard floors.

Wore the khaki to church and nobody could tell they were my comfortable pair.
