A sophisticated work-to-weekend loafer in calf suede, the HELIO loafer is detailed with polished monochromatic hardware. From its extra padded memory foam lining to its lightweight EVA foam outsole, this versatile style was designed with total comfort in mind.

The Helio loafers are tiny! I have a short, wide size 6.5 foot and always wear DJP in a size 7 since the leather is so soft and they usually go on like a dream This shoe; however, is short and narrow. When I unboxed it, it immediately looked like a baby shoe: like I had ordered a 6 or 6.5, not a 7. I checked the box and I did order size seven. I ordered the black, navy and saddle and they are all tiny, tiny tiny! The saddle is now sold out in a 7.5, which I think would be too long anyway, I have never worn a 7.5 in my life. I guess I am stuck with trying to stretch these expensive, small but very good-looking shoes. The quality is delicious and other than sizing the construction is sound and the comfort would be there if they were not so squeezing on my feet.

Great style. Not too too clunky, but funky clunky... in a good way. Love restrained non-shiny buckle detail. All good. Fit typical. Need tape on heel if no socks.

The quality of the shoes are great and can’t find in a regular show store.Buying on line was very easy as well and if they weren’t quite what you had in mind the return was easy as well.

Nice detailing, Super cool colors. They are elegant yet casual. They run small and D.P. doesn't offer a 10.5 so the 11 worked.

I am updating my earlier review of the tiny, tiny shoe. I returned all three colors I purchased (saddle, navy and black) and reordered them a half size larger. This did the trick for my short, wide feet. Whereas my regular size was excruciatingly narrow and short, a half size up was perfect. These loafers are like butter! So comfy and the lug sole is very cute. I did give them a weather spray and they, like the many, many other DJP shoes I have purchased, are gorgeous construction, materials and (adjusted) fit. Love these!!

Love my newest pair of Donald Pliner shoes! I can hardly wait until the weather is cool enough to wear my suede loafers.

Do NOT size upon this shoe. I believed the comment, ordered a half size larger…they are huge…I had to return and exchange for my normal size.

Shoes are very comfortable I love the look as well a little clunky and stylish at the same time. The fit was snug initially and had stretched some to the point where my foot moves around too much . I always need to size down half a size in Donald Pliner shoes . The fit seems to have changed in the last three years .

Soft, & comfy. I luv it with denim and the lug bottom looks cool- but also adds to the comfort!

I am a long time client of DJP. I used to buy many, many pairs when DJP made them in ITALY, not in Asia, However, I looked at these shoes, and said I think I will get them! In spite of the negative size reviews - they worked perfectly in my normal size - an 8. I used to sometimes buy a 7.5 in the original DJP at times, but also had to get an 8 when the style was cut on a more Italian foot bed than the US sized foot. The color is delicious! The style is right now - and the comfort level - a big factor for me and the rest of the world - is superb! The atyle is classic yet modern with the lug sole and the rounded toe! This was bought after I had a problem with an over-sized fit of a different style. I intend to wear these 24/7/12 - as they go with most everything except a formal event. Do yourself a favor - Sunshine Brands owns DP now and for several years, give these a true try - you will not be disappointed..I am a shoe-coholic, and love them madly! Feel like I'm walking on a cloud and yet, great support. YAY!!!!
