After trying on multiple Toms standard loafers both from Amazon as well as in store, I had pretty much given up on the brand. I'm a size 13 which translates into a size 12.5 for Toms which is unfortunate because Toms stop making half sizes after 12... So their 12's were waaay too tight and the 13's felt like they were going to fall off. It was a pity because I really liked all the pairs that I tried on otherwise.

Then these came along! These fit perfectly. I sized down to 12 as suggested and these are now my casual no socks shoes. They are super soft and the thicker sole actually feels better for me than the regular Toms. I'm 200+lbs so I think the added support will probably suit me more in the long run. The base is also a bit wider which is also better for my feet. These also keep in line with the style of other Toms. People have asked about them saying that they look strangely like Toms and they're absolutely correct.

No idea if they'll be as durable as my girlfriend's standard canvas Toms which should probably be burned for the sake of humanity at this point but they're holding up pretty well so far. If they last over a year, I'd happily buy them again. If they don't, you'll see this review lose a star or two (it's originally a 5).
