Loafers. Yay or Nay?

Not fucking penny loafers, but something semi-casual and slip on.

I don't do the sandal thing, and I'm definintely thinking leather Moo..

I have a mauled pair of these shitty Airwalk slip-ons that were pretty comfortable but too casual for anything much at all.

Not really into the tassel thing either, but whaddya guys and gals think about the loafer or slip-on?

[EDIT: This read even better after it was posted and I was re-reading it when I also read my sig.]

The first pair really hit me right. I'm gonna try my luck and see if I can find them in Macy's tomorrow.

My uncle IS Cousin Eddie in nearly every way...the random showing up at our house, the white alligator skin loafers, and he looks nearly exactly like him....

Nice, but WAAAAAAY too clunky soles. These must be Skechers, cos they always look like they have potential, but them the 4" soles are too much

These look like they MIGHT be too formal for what you are asking about Corey.

The color, not so much. The Style, on the other hand is money.

If you can find these in brown or black, they are money with jeans or khakis, but too casual for full on suits.

How about these?

But seriously, these are what every well-dressed man should have. A nice pair in basic black. Can't go wrong.

Can't argue with Weejuns, or the Kiltie Tassle. When I'm not wearing my J&M bitch shoes, it's Bass all the way.
