Poor heel construction

I really wanted to like these loafers because the design is clean and they look great with both casual and dress outfits. The silhouette is sleek and they definitely give a more refined look compared to bulkier loafers. However, after only the second wear, the heel started making a noticeable squeaking and clicking noise, as if something inside the shoe isn’t properly secured. This isn’t just a minor break-in issue — it sounds and feels like there’s internal movement in the heel. For a shoe that is meant to be worn in more polished settings, this is pretty disappointing. A dress shoe should feel solid and quiet, especially this early on. Overall: - Pros: clean design, versatile, looks sharp with a suit - Cons: questionable build quality, noise in the heel after minimal use I’d recommend them for the look, but be aware that the construction may not be as reliable as expected.
