Customer Reviews Steve Madden Crew Penny Loafer

The fit on these is just odd...very narrow in the toe box and huge in the heels. I took a couple of steps and would have walked out of them if the front wasn’t so tight around my foot. The style was just what I was looking for (and ridiculously hard to find, unfortunately), but sadly, the fit is poor.

First, these shoes are very, very cute. Just cool. Very high quality looking leather and hipster luggy sole. When I first put these on I was surprised at how tight they were. I put on some super thin loafer socks and had to really shove my foot into the shoe. I was able to do it without a shoehorn though. I immediately thought "I am going to have to send these back". But I wore them around the house for about 15 minutes and they softened up and now (about an hour later) they still feel a bit stiff but are way more comfortable. For what it is worth I ordered size 8.5 and I'm typically that size but sometimes where a 9 in boots. I would suggest that if you order these shoes that you get your normal size and that you wear them around a bit before deciding yea/nay. For me, it is a wholehearted YES. Looking forward to them softening up a bit more and finally having the perfect shoe that is both stylish and functional with this cool lug sole.

I love these, they are so cute, but did not fit well. Have to return. They are more narrow than I was expecting and seemed a little constricting in the toe too. I might have done better with a half size up.

Extremely tight on the toes and hard to get foot in shoe. I have medium width feet and am not overweight.... so it’s not like I have chubby feet. Far from it. When I read the reviews I was skeptical about everyone saying how tight/small they felt on the toes. It’s true! I ordered my usual size 7.5. It felt like the length was barely accurate and the top/sides of the shoe were a 6.5-7. I thought maybe it would feel better with pantyhose. NOPE. They are made from real leather, which is probably why they are so stuff/tight. But I don’t want to risk trying to stretch them out only to realize they’re not returnable. On the search again for cute chunky shoes.

I wanted to love these. I do love these, but they are just too tight. The fit in length, but too tight around the middle and toes. Then my heel kept slipping out of the back. I really love the look of these, especially with boot cut or wide leg pants. The price is great too compared to some of the others. I can't really find another style like this one, but I think I'm gonna have to return them.

Very happy

They are snug...narrow. I am average width. They are leather so, the will stretch the extra 1/8'' I need. I am a size 6.5 and ordered a 6.5. I kept them. Made very well. They are so cute with jeans. Reminds me of the '80s. I may even put a penny in the slot.

I bought the faux Croco version. Very small. Bought my regular size: 8.5 and they looked small to me out of the box. Tried to try them on, no way. At least a size too small. I guess thats why they were on sale, but still. Steve Madden is pretty popular, would think they would have sizing correct.
