Men's Alpargata Core Loafer Flat

Most people, had said buy a size larger as they are tight. I am size 10 UK, so I bought a size 10.5 UK, and it is slightly too big. This indicates to me, that the Toms get the size correct first time, they look good, and feel good, alas slightly big because I bought a slightly larger size but I love them.

I have slim and long feet so slip on shoes have always been a bit of a nightmare for me. I often have to get a smaller size so that the length compensates for being too wide which is the only way they stay on my feet - and usually this means that shoes pinch my toes. However, with these Toms, I haven't had that issue at all. I bought a size 9.5 (but I noticed this morning that the shoes say 10.5???) and they fit perfectly on my size 10 feet. They are by far the comfiest slip on shoe I have purchased.I also have very soft skin and most slip-ons rub (as they usually are not intended for sock wearing) but these didn't at all. I chanced walking quite far with them on (over 3 miles and without socks) and they were as comfortable at the end of the walk as at the start.I am very happy with my purchase and would definitely think about getting another pair. I'm not sure what happened with the size though. I think I'd choose 10 (I am a size 10) for my next pair just to see.

These lasted about 9 months before they faded and a hole appeared over the toes on one of them. Initially very tight, to the point that I could hardly get them on, but as others have pointed out they do loosen up and after about a month they were snug, but comfortable. I liked the look of them and was initially happy with my purchase. However, nine months later a hole had appear in one slipper and the other was showing wear in the same place. Also, areas of the colour had faded badly and they looked shabby and much older than they really were. I threw them out at that point.

... with my son. I am 70+ and he no longer thinks they could be "cool". He doesn't believe that my generation invented "coolness". Great casual footwear for indoors and short walks outdoors in the dry. One up on slippers I'd say. Comfortable out of the box. No socks for me but that's your choice but watch the size if you have thick socks. I just washed my first pair in cold water with mild soap and let them air dry as advised, with no problems. Ordered a second pair.

Other reviewers mention the size issue and I fully agree. 1 to 1.5 sizes smaller than stated uk size.They are very light, attractive and well finished. Make the size allowance and you might be giving a very positive review

Ordered 2 pairs of these one in Men’s version and the other the Women’s. Both the same size. The men’s version fits as expected whilst the women’s was as if they were a size smaller, far too narrow. Why manufacturers think if you’re a woman your feet are narrow unless they still believe that women bind their feet to keep them small!The men’s version was easy to put on has a comfortable foot bed and are lightweight.

Great shoe at the best price available online. This is the second pair I have purchased as I had to return the first pair because they were too small. I am a size 9 and the size 10 only just fit me. I would definitely suggest ordering the size above your normal shoe size.

Purchased for a birthday gift for my brother. He has size 12 feet! They fit well and Tom’s love his feet!He wears steel toe-capped boots during the week and loves to wear Tom’s to give his feet a break. He has several pairs colours but agrees the sole of the alpagarta is excellent.
