Thoughts on these Factory 2nd Allen Edmonds?

I feel like they are in pretty good shape for factory seconds but honestly I don't have much to compare to as these are my first pair of loafers. I like the feel and am leaning toward keeping them but am hoping for some outside opinions on whether $200 is worth it. Originally was going to buy from Meermin but they don't have any in the color I'm looking for.

This is likely why they’re seconds but they seem fine enough to me

Yeah they look nice It’s probably something you’ll notice more than others

Thanks, agreed. Definitely more noticeable in the closeup photo than when wearing them

I feel like that won't stand out after wear anyway?

Plus if someone makes fun of you for wearing flawed shoes you can call them a nerd

Was just about to say this too, as they become more worn in it’ll likely become less noticeable
