The Marlowe Loafer

I really wanted to like these shoes. My feet are on the wider side of regular due to a bunion. I ordered the 36W. The shoes are a beautiful color and well crafted. However they do not feel like a wide width and are very stiff and would require quite a bit a breaking in. For reference these 36W are narrower than the Paul Green Wheaton loafer size 36 regular.

The fit and the leather is fabulous. I use to be a SW fan but their quality has deteriorated. Thank you Margaux for making LARGE size shoes. I have a long narrow foot, wearing an 11 in mules and a 12 in boots, these loafers in the 42 fit perfect. My heel slipped out of the 43 when walking.

Absolutely love the shoes. Comfortable from the first wear, they look fantastic.

Like many people I have a difficult foot to fit—especially with slip-on shoes staying on. This loafer comes the closest to anything I’ve tried that could work. I was hopeful when I ordered a half-size smaller in this shoe as per the website’s recommendation but the loafer was uncomfortably short in length. I exchanged them for my regular size but with a narrow width. This was more comfortable but there is a little slippage in my heels with a slight gap at the back and on the inner edge of my foot. Lightweight socks help but in time, I would likely need heavier socks as the shoes will stretch. A lot of reviews mentioned the shoe runs narrow. I don’t have a lot foot volume, wear a medium width, and was fine with both the narrow and the medium widths—depending on the length chosen. Sadly, I don’t think this style is a good choice for me. It’s gorgeous comfortable and supportive but I still need shoes with ties or straps in their structure to get the best fit.

I initially purchased my typical size of US 7. 5, but they were a bit tight. I sized up to the 8 and they are perfect! Required very little break in time and they are simply gorgeous. These are my 5th pair of Margaux shoes/boots and I love them all!

Absolutely love these shoes! I thought about purchasing for over a year due to the high price point, but finally splurged and I’m very glad I did. I was concerned about sizing as I’m a true 6. 5 and saw several posts saying they ran large, but for me the 6. 5 Marlowe was perfect. Within the first week, I walked over fifteen miles in these shoes without issue. Will definitely be purchasing a second pair!
