fit advice on new loafers
for the 800 last, half down from brannock is usually a sockless fit.
1. you should have no pain sitting around not walking.
2. that's expected from new loafers, the sole needs to break in. if you can lift your foot straight up off the ground without the heel popping off due to gravity I find that's a good indicator that it'll be fine after break in.
3. unless it becomes dangerous to walk in, toe spacing is generally a bad indicator of fit.

Want to shorten my suit sleeves and the tailor said he can't clean up the decorative stitching
it depends on the fabric and how the button hole stitching was done. I would listen to your tailor since he can physically look at it.
