J&M Durant Bit Loafer

Thoughts on the Durant loafer? (Criticisms of J&M/loafers aside, please evaluate this particular loafer in comparison to others at this price point.)

They have an extremely comfortable sole, but I'm wondering if the toe is too squared.

Thanks

Aiming for business casual. Gray slacks and a blazer, perhaps with a suit in less formal occasions (class presentations, etc...one semester left of undergrad.) Like the horsebit but can't afford Gucci's just yet. Mostly concerned about the toe not being rounded enough (it's a softened curve though) over things like leather quality. By no means would these be my go-to shoe for business formal. Comparable suggestions welcome. I'm not in New York and try to avoid anything "fashion forward."

 

I prefer the bit and those Cole Hanns are sharp. I've heard mixed reviews on the new CH's with the Nike Air tech in them...anyone care to weigh in? I'm thinking I might just keep the J&M's for casual as I snagged them for only about $80.
