Hey, anyone has experience with J.Fitzpatrick loafers? How is quality compared to say Carmina or Loake 1880?

Anywhere that I can try the sizes for J.Fitzpatrick shoes?

Trying to find my "perfect" pair of loafers. Care to give me some ideas.

Some criterias. Not suede. Not tassel/string loafers. Must not have split toe.

Cheers :)

Your socks game is also on another level. Always wanted to try wearing bright colour socks, but ...

Nice suede shoes arc.

Thanks!

Haha... never try never know. I'm sure that there are other bros with nicer socks than mine... I just get mine from Uniqlo.... :D

saw your post @ 10.30am dropped by at 11am, got a pair of double monks, wouldn't have known.

thanks for sharing!

Poisonous place, this. Was at Adelphi, sorta decided not to go cause it was so hot outside, saw your post, went.

Unfortunately (or not) couldn't find my size.

Anyway, just to share - lots of tan shoes in various models, some samples. All with creases due to the fact that they've been tried on before. I also saw some boots, including jodhpurs and button ups.

Given to understand that they're mostly sized 7.5 E.

Friendly dude also introduced/sold the $289 'Essentials' promo going on - 4 colours, any model, including whole cuts. French calf (didn't ask from where).

I have 2 JFitzpatrick loafers; same design (full strap, but one in suede the other in black calf).

They are above Loake1880 for sure. Probably on par or close to Carmina's.

U r just looking for a penny loafer isnt it i. Calf i suppose if you not into suede unless u want exotic leather. And i assume u prefer it to be more dressy as well. For that there are tons of choice and the thing abt loafer ordering online is u might head the carousell after receiving to post. Otherwise local maker is a good place to start or carmina with a local store.

Saw a redwing caverly chukka. Is very nice to me. Anyone know if it is considered patent such that it will be difficult to remove any scuff mark?

Thanks in advance
