"I picked up the MErcanti Fiorentini dress lace-up in the store the previous week. I thought they were a very good value but was also in need of a nice loafer to replace my recently trashed loafers. This MF loafer was not in the store but i purchased through the website because of my positive experience with the lace-ups and boy am i glad i did. They don't feel like they should be but these shoes are surprisingly way comfortable. They look great in person and I would definitely recommend."
