Customer Reviews Blondo Dale Waterproof Loafer

I love these shoes! I needed a comfy and waterproof pair for a trip to Europe. Cobblestone streets in Spring: none of my other pairs of shoes would do! I ordered about 12 pairs of shoes from Zappos and these were the winner. Everything else was too frumpy or uncomfortable. These are cute and I walked for MILES up hills, in the rain, and they were as comfortable on my last step as my first. I am going to order another pair in another color. I only wish they came in more fun shades. I’m generally a size 10.5 but the 10 fit perfectly in these.

First off, I ordered these yesterday and received them today, even better service than usual! The shoe has a long, narrow toe-box, but is wide at mid-foot; this is a size 9M (I'm typically a 8.5 or 9). It was uncomfortably tight across the forefoot and then had kind of a gap mid-foot. If it just fit right, would be great...positives are the insole felt very nice, and has a nice outer sole too, color was lovely (dark gray) and felt like nice material, but it was just an awkward fit, narrow in forefoot, wide at mid-foot. Thought about returning for a half size smaller in a wide, but the mid-foot is already wide. Tried with socks which helps the gap at mid-foot but unbearably tight across the forefoot. As always, easy to return with Zappos, just bummed this shoe didn't work out for me.

I initially ordered a 7.5M, it was way too big. The 6.5 M is tad too small, maybe in time it would stretch but I'm not willing to take that chance. The 7M would probably work but it is out of stock. The search continues.

Nice shoe, soft suede, good neutral color but was way to big. Re-ordering in a smaller size, hope it works.

I had been searching for a nice classic pair of drivers for a while. I am very pleased with the comfort and style of these shoes! They are my first Blondo purchase and I purchased a pair of their boots subsequently and love both pairs. For me, the brand is true to size and the comfort is unbelievable!

I absolutely loved this shoe but unfortunately had to return it twice. Perhaps this shoe is handmade because the first time the tongue was crooked and the second time I had to return was because the stitching was crooked! I also ordered it in grey and those were perfect so I kept them. Such a shame, because I really also wanted this shoe in the black but they didn't have another in my size. The return team both times were super kind and helpful. I love Zappos!

I loved these shoes, except for the stitching trim around the toe. They were soooo comfortable and such a bonus to be waterproof! Wish they were a penny loafer style. Then I'd keep them and have every color. They fit perfectly and so incredibly soft and comfortable!!! Oh well...continuing my search. I'll probably regret not keeping these.

I love these shoes! I bought them over the summer and debated keeping them or not because they are a little pricey. They are well worth the extra money! These are my new go-to shoes. I used to buy Toms, but at at least $40-50 a pair, the soles wear out too quickly in my opinion. I am a teacher, and I have really high arches, so I have found that these provide the support I need. And yes, they are waterproof; however, I have not worn them in a monsoon. Yet. I am a true 5 in sandals, but wear a 6 in these.

I wear between a size 7.5 and a size 8. I ordered these in a size 7.5 based on reviews. They are a great fit right out of the box. I don't wear socks with them and did not experience any discomfort. I got these because they are waterproof. I'm not sure that I would wear them in a torrential downpour but I feel confident wearing these in a light rain.

Love everything about these loafers, but I need a wide shoe. The 8 also felt very short.

I wanted a pair of waterproof shoes, not booties or boots. These look like normal shoes. Normally, I wear a 7 M. The 7M was snug and barely would go on with socks. I returned and ordered 7.5 M. Those fit well with socks and I like keeping my feet dry on rainy days without wearing big boots.

I love these shoes. I have them in dark grey and mushroom. I can wear them all day without my feet hurting.

Bought suede water repellent so feel I will be safe wearing in moderately wet conditions. Looks very good. Quality seems good.

These looked like they should be super soft and malleable, but they were quite stiff. Beautiful tho', I just didn't find them comfortable enough for me.

Very stylish and comfy shoe. I’m a true size 11 and while the 11s were an okay fit, I was worried they would feel too big after breaking them in. Just felt a little loose. Had to go down to 10 since there’s no 10.5 and the 10s are tight, but I am taking them to a shoe repair place to get them stretched. I feel like a 10.5 would have been perfect if it existed! Overall very cute and comfy shoe and I feel like I’ll be able to walk a lot in these

The cutes waterproof loafers, I love how stylish and comfortable they are for walking in wet grass and sidewalks. Even wore mine in the woods and they were easy to clean.

beautiful shoe, I'm usually an 8 ordered a 7.5 returning for a 7

My new favorite flat but not too flat shoe! Classic style and versatile color, I can wear it with just about anything.

Very comfortable. Originally ordered a 7 (which I normally wear) and traded it for a 6.5 which is perfect.

Nice style and good fit. Unfortunately, I don't think they will get along with the dropped metatarsal in my left foot. (There are few brands of shoes that really work on my weird feet.) Too bad, because they were otherwise comfortable and looked good, especially for a waterproof shoe.

Loved shoe but fit too short

These are exactly what I was looking for! They are extremely comfortable, soft & flexible. Sadly, they were way too big. I'm b/w a 7-7.5 & ordered the 7.5 because the last few shoes I'd tried in this style, that's what was fitting. I can literally stick my entire index finger b/w my heel & the back of the shoe though, it's not just "slipping". I'm exchanging for a 6.5 & thinking they'll work because they'll also stretch a bit w/wear.

I loved the fact the leather was waterproof, other wise too narrow and non and to very little arch support .

Seem nice, 8.5 were too big for me. Trying an 8... seem nice.

These shoes are amazing - stylish and well made - you can feel the quality... ... unfortunately, the toe box is very narrow, sadly, so typical for a woman's shoe. A wider toe box and I would be all over these shoes. As it is these are going back to Zappos. So sad! I hope Blondo hears my plea to make the toes a bit wider.
