The chambords are a weird last - long heel to ball and then short toe box. My big toe rubbed on the inside and that’s never a problem spot for me

Buck mason has a cool belted raincoat with big patch pockets and the full saddle paperback chinos are good WW2 style chinos but not sure they are worth the price

It’s like a mash up of Barbour’s solway and Eddie Bauer’s karakorum. Allblues has a good karakorum in green

fit advice on new loafers

I got true to my sneaker size (10.5D)/ half up from my brannock (10E). It’s a somewhat forgiving last but it tends to be lower volume at the midfoot to keep a snug fit. I found that the 10 crushed the top of my foot

fit advice on new loafers

Alden does E in the LHS at least if not wider. I’m a 10E brannock and was swimming in the wide LHS. 10.5D is a perfect fit for me.

Go with your gut - Rancourt loafers will stretch but the last didn’t work for me. I know it’s a big jump in price, but I found Alden’s LHS to be a great fit for my wide foot with a high instep

Will this crease get better with wear?

Do you mean where the piping curves in to the laces? If so that’s just how shoes are shaped
