I could not even get these shoes on, the material was so stiff. I should not have to force my feet into shoes. Plus, the color was an ugly dark brown, not a rich brown like in the picture.

I've been searching for a professional-looking, comfortable, dark brown, leather, loafer-type shoe and I thought these would be right. However, when they arrived and I tried them on I thought they just looked kind of goofy. I returned them.
I'd also recommend:
Merrell, Puma, Dansko, Ecco, Taos, Born, Kodiak, Chaco

I have two pairs of the Bocca that I am currently wearing to work. The uppers look new because I polish them every other Sunday but the heels of both shoes wore down within 4 months and had to be fixed. I've only owned them for approximately 7 months. The previous pairs I have owned had the same defect. These are very expensive shoes (at least on my salary) so I cannot keep replacing them so often. Please use better quality materials to make the heels so that us customers don't need a new shoe every 4 months. The only reason mine are still wearable is because I took them to the shoemaker to replace the four heels. All that being said, they add a sharpness to any outfit. I wear dress pants with either polos or a blouse and cardigan, and these loafers complete my outfit. They are very stylish and once you overcome the break-in period (about a week), they are comfortable. They are also ideal for standing if you have a stand up desk in your office/cubicle. If buying, be prepared to replace the heels every 3-4 months.

I'm familiar w/ Franco Sarto shoes and as they are beautiful they run small.. they offer a lot in black but only one page on brown. Good quality shoe

Disappointing fit. Shoe was narrow for a wide fit. Leather was stiff and sides of shoe hurt my foot. Color looked as if it was added on rather than actual leather color. Returned the item.

Just received my order today. Sadly the 6.5 size didn't work for me. Plenty of room in the toe box, but the heel space was too large and my heel slipped out each step I took. Thought about ordering a size 6M, but feared the shoe would not fit correctly in the toe bed. So disappointed! I really wanted these shoes, but will be returning.

These were oddly too large. I've warn this shoe for 5 yrs in the same size that I ordered. I love the style, color, simplicity but had to send the shoes back. Im trying a 2nd pairjust in case it was due to quality control.

Even though I love these shoes and well cared for them they will fall apart on their own. I didn't wear as much on purpose and this is what happened within ~2yrs.
They've reaped on the side, cracked and leaves a horrible stain in my booties. They are not cheap either.

First let me say how much I love this loafer, but it is so disappointing when the shoe doesn't hold up. This is an expensive shoe and I have to replace them every three months. The outer heals of the shoe peel. So embarrassing when you cross your legs and look at your feet and see your heel peeling off. The shoes also scratch very easy. I work in the accounting office at a school district. I dress business casual. I don't rough house or work anywhere to wear the shoe out so quickly. It's unfortunate how badly the shoe holds together. I love this shoe. Just wish it was made better especially because how much they charge for it.

Should have listened to another reviewer who said the brown looked like mud, wasn’t like the picture, and didn’t even look like leather. It is also about a half size, maybe full size, too large

Love the shoes and they fit perfectly. However, they arrived scuffed and dirty so I will be returning. Doubtful that I'll order from zappos again since this isn't the first time this has happened. Very annoying when you are supposedly buying a 'new' item.

The sole sticks way out beyond the shoe. The shoe was so tight I could barely squeeze my foot inside, even though I had ordered wide.

I have loved the Bocca loafers for years but these are a disappointment. They look like they should but the feel is wrong. They are 'clompy' when walking and the leather feels rubbery. The fit runs slightly large as compared to the older pair I was looking to replace. Width is true to size. I would not recommend to a friend, which is really sad because this has traditionally been my go to shoe for fall/winter.

Beautiful shoes but the materials were so hard and hurt my feet to walk. Need to return them.
