What pair of loafers should I get? Help me
I’ve got two pairs on Italian got them on holiday, Italian leather handmade horsebit loafers.
I do recommend penny loafers from Grant Stone, reasonable price and good quality.
It’s personal preference really what style you like. I heard some one suggestion buy cheap when you start out, terrible advice. Always buy quality when buying shoes even if it means the extra money. Better to get a great quality shoe than a cheap one.
But what are the most prestigious addictions?
That’s the question.
