Women's Victoria Loafer

As a Stegmann employee we often get advance samples to wear, test and provide feedback on. I've been wearing these in loafers in Tan for several months now and they look as good as the day I got them. They clean up easily with water and a soft towel and I haven't noticeably scuffed them up which is surprising because I'm hard on shoes. I've worn them alot in the rain and they have gotten wet dozens of times and dried out just fine. The arch support is not as pronounced as in a clog, but it's still more than adequate for spending hours on my feet. I suffer from foot and back pain related to an old ankle injury so support is very important to me.

I really like the cotton gabardine lining - as someone who likes to go barefoot but has serious issues with getting blisters, this loafer has surprisingly given me no problems whatsoever. I've put probably 10-12 barefoot miles on these loafers just walking around the city and there's been no rubbing, no pain or friction anywhere in this shoe. I have a medium foot with a wider toe so the shape of this shoe is perfect for my feet. No heel slip either!

I'm looking forward to wearing the heck out of these all spring and plan to get them in black as well. They go with literally every pair of pants I own and a few skirts and dresses as well. They're great for travel because walking long distances in them is no issue, plus they're super versatile to style. Love love love these! Don't hesitate and don't wait because I'm guessing these are going to sell out fast!

Pro tip: They will loosen up a little bit over time. If you have a wider foot and want them to loosen up a lot, wear them around with socks for a day or two and that will speed things up.

Nice quality but runs wide. Had to send this back.

Start by saying I love the Stegmann's shoes that my feet tolerate, and these loafers are gorgeous. With arthritis, bunions and some natural joint fusions, my feet need the metatarsal support found in the Mainz shoe. Had to return and ordered another pair of the Mainz in a different color. Sad but at least I can wear some of these shoes. Before finding Stegmann's, I pretty much stuck with arch support sneakers.
