I'm so here for you continuously roasting The Row 😂
😅
when you're at the top, everyone will try to take you down
@@dva5610 their prices are at the top, that's for sure
@@dva5610problem with the row is that for almost double the price of Hermes and loro piana, I expect double the quality. Which you just don't get! The quality is great but I've had Hermes ready to wear for a lot less!
I have loved this series for years and have come back to your page over and over again, hoping for another installment of this series. You’re one of my favourite creators overall, and have been for years, but I just wanted to say I especially appreciate this series.
Sebago is pronounced se- "bay"- go, named after the Sebago Lake region in the state of Maine in the US, where they were first manufactured. Sebago Lake was named after the native Sebago tribe that originally lived in that area. The Sebago boat shoes have become a cult classic in the US, though sadly they are no longer manufactured in Maine, they are now manufactured in other countries.
Sebago boat shoes were fondly part of my childhood. I’m nostalgic for them. 😊
The lake was a part of my childhood, loved it there.
Love this series 🤍 Also just a take from someone with wide feet/a different foot shape to Lizzy and who owns most of these loafers:
1. The GH Bass really cut up the backs of my ankles when wearing them in but they've softened over the years and are so comfortable now.
2. GH Bass also do an Easy Weejun which has rubber soles so less slippy but they're noticeably more narrow than their standard.
3. The Flattered and Gucci's get my vote for wide feet!
4. The Row Canal loafers/slippers are a good option for wide feet if you want a Row loafer (still OTT pricing though.)
5. Lizzy - are the navy linen trousers in your 'slobby' outfit from Whistles???
xx
thank you for this, as a square/wide foot owner. and... her slobby is my dressed nicely!
Thankyou, Wide feet girlies unite!
Have you perhaps tried clarks or coach loafers? if so would love to hear your opinion
I love this series - thank you so much for bringing it back 💕 Also, thank you for using some of the loafers you already had in your closet--it was great to get a long-term review for those.
For future videos, I think it'd be so helpful to have styling tips since there were so many styles in the mix (ex. when might you go for a horsebit loafer vs penny loafer, etc.). I'm sure you don't have everything from previous episodes, but it'd also be neat to have a round-up of all the items that were ranked #1 and hear about if you still like them now.
Another great video!
I love the idea of a round up of do you still like them so much
I love all the outfits - even the “sloppy” one! You’re an inspiration
I constantly suffer from friction with leather shoes and the Compeed anti-friction stick saved me! just needs to be applied to the most sensitive areas of skin and wait 10 minutes before putting on your shoes. costs less than patches, works more efficiently 🌺
I appreciate this series sooo much!! I'd love to see your take on shorts, white linen pants/skirts or maybe even dresses, summer dresses, comfy but cool sandals, sweatshirt & sweatpant set... ❤
Thank you so much! I love tasting basics. Would be in for fisherman’s sandals next ❤
linen trousers next ? ☺
watching you talk about how much they hurt your feet & remembering I use a wheelchair and can wear whatever shoes I want without pain now 👼
vagabond loafers are my absolute favourite shoes I’ve ever bought! I’ve worn them as a full time server for over a year - I feel I could walk forever in them
I just love this series! I’d love to see a follow up video of you styling the loafers or a companion video showing what you wore throughout the weeks of testing! I always enjoyed that aspect in your old testing basic videos. I can’t wait to see the next “episodes”
I've had the GH Bass ones for 9 years and find them incredibly comfortable and can walk forever in them. But I did put a Dr. Scholl's heel cushion insert on the inside back when I got them, so I would recommend that.
So glad you reviewed Sebago loafers! I have multiple pairs and love them all.
wow that's a really neat tally! you need to frame that thing itself! :D
Probably would have been worth trying some of the loafers at Carmina boutique in NYC. (the ability to choose a last and not only a size can really help people nail down their fit more easily)
"Baptism of fire" is definitely a phrase I'm stealing lol!
You're the best! I have really soft ones from Reiss and love them. Really appreciate all the work here, xx from Oregon💙

HavEn’t been this excited about a video since a while!
I have a GH Bass as well and they did the exact same thing rubbing under my ankle, now I exclusively wear them in colder weather with some socks to provide against rubbing :)
I bought the Gucci Jordan mules last year. They were comfortable from the first wear. They are high quality. Reassuring to hear your comments. Now I’m going to look at the loafers! 😂
Would love to see a testing basics belts!:)
I wish you have reviewed Church’s
Next one maybe funky (sorry) leather belts? I loooove your khaite one so much but I can’t bear to part with that much £ away (also I’ve just moved flat so by that I mean I CAN’T part away with that much lol) so maybe khaite can be the most expensive one? Also i get it if still comes in first, it’s v beautiful tbf. Great video and I’ve also been introduced to a new brand too. Have a good sunday!
Thank you for all your effort and energy that got into this video! So helpful ❤
I’m hereeeeeeee for this!!! Miss these.
IMHO, the Flattered style is a moccasin not a loafer : - )
So glad the Gucci came out top, I find them so comfy. Next TB idea..would you consider linen shirts ? I’m sure you did that before but an updated one would be great x
Which size did you go for?
In the Gucci Jordaan I went down a whole size.
Amazing video! Id like to have some informations about your experience with vans slip on. You used them in the past if Im not wrong (I remember seeing them in one of your shoes collection videos) but unfortunately there are no videos about them in your channel.
being a loafer girl i loved this testing basics. I need to replace a couple of pairs of loafers this fall and will definitely use this video as a guide. I am so happy you liked Sebago as I have been super curious about that brand. Can I ask what was the black v neck knit you were wearing at the end during your summary?
waiting summer style, slipper flipflop
Lovely video :)
The Gucci loafers look amazing. Do you find them breathable in the warmer months ?
Or they get quite sweaty without socks in your experience?
Love testing basics. I have no need for a loafer, and not planning to buy a pair anytime soon, yet here I am with baited breath watching the whole video. Your hair cut and colour is also so perfect atm 🩵
Hi. Thank you for making this video!
Do you face any odour issues with the Gucci loafers if worn continuously without socks?
I’d also love to hear your recommendations for loafer socks? I have a hard time finding thin and breathable dress socks
I ordered Sebago’s right after watching this video.
Also, what is the white shirt’s brand that you are wearing at 11:04? 😍
do you treat your shoes for the rain? if so, what do you use?
OMG the prices.....for shoes 🫣
Sebagos are winners, love the blue!
My 1953 gucci patent loafers are my fave. just beautiful to look at although the patent does take time to wear in. there has been quite a price increase in the last several years! like almost 50%!
Could you tell me which size you went for? Half a size down? I’m trying to decide
@@janemackrell3733 I’m usually an Italian 38, 7 in sandals and 7.5 in boots/sneakers and got the 1953 loafers in 37.5. my heel slipped out in the 38. but keep in mind, I can’t wear the 37.5 with a thicker sock, only with a very thin one or just barefooted. they are also relatively pretty narrow shoes. so keep the width of your feet in mind as well. Hope that helps!
great video Liz! How are you feeling? You feel a bit raw in the intro clip, which doesnt at all reflect poorly on the video or your performance, just makes it feel all the more real and true and honest. so I guess I'm just writing that to send you my love and thoughts really.
Maybe heavier for winter?
I love the outfit at 16:33 so much. It’s so simple and chick
Do you have any insights into which brand might give a wider fit? I have my eye on a pair of Tods!!
I wish you had done a Prada loafer!
Summer Sandals update!!!
Lizzie, please help me! I have ordered two pairs of Gucci 1953 women’s loafers - one in size 39, one in size 38.5. The 39 (my usual size) slips slightly on the heel. The 38.5 fits snuggly but I am worried that my toes may slightly pinch. The women’s style is slightly different to your men’s style which is squarer in the toe. Do you think the leather will soften and be so supple that my toe won’t feel a pinch in due course? I just don’t know which size to keep.
I think there is a way to do a poll? Maybe look into that so it’s easier for you to count the votes next time!!
I have the Gucci loafers and they are soo good… and I managed to get them half off because they were mistakenly put on sale at Nordstrom 😆
Hi Lizzy, thank you for such an informative video!!! One question, where is your black leather belt from at 14:29 in the video? Thank you :)
I know you can’t review everything, but I would have appreciated seeing a review of Dear Frances.
anyone remember the Celine loafers? Old school Lizzy fans? I was hoping they'd get a mention.
Is it the case that you can’t buy those blue Sebastopol loafers in the UK?
I need help with loafers please. I have big, wide feet and muscular calves, should I try to make my feet look as small as possible or balance out my calves? Thank you for your help.
What jeans and belt are you wearing at 14:00 min ? 😍
she said in a vlog called 'vulnerable' that jeans are from cos and belt is from mango. love it too!!
@@user-ui6zz1xv4b Thank you so much! Just watched the vlog and I believe they are Hobbs though!
sorry, my bad ! 🤗
such a great video ! thank you !
i'm jealous all of these would completely destroy my feet. you are lucky!
Please take us shopping with you!
I hate the creases on my jordaans 😭
surprised church is not discussed
Really appreciate in a loafer that they go “high”? Like i dont love that they only cover the toes like ballerinas
My friend hurt her feet because she was wearing the Prada loafers in London so yeah…just because they’re Prada…doesn’t mean that they’re that great
If you have a shoe with a leather sole and you don't want to put rubber soles on them, just scoot your feet a few times across a brick sidewalk
Fab
👌🏼

Do not, I repeat, do not buy from Flattered. Worst customer service since that episode of Amy's Baking Company.
you are beautiful you greet me
Are they patent leather?? No, I don't think they are. That aside, great video
Really enjoyed the review!! Keep it up!! 🇨🇦👍🩷🩷
