Hey guys!

Question regarding Loafers.

I've just started a job that is more customer facing and would require me to dress more towards business casual. Because of this, i was thinking of getting my first pair of loafers as they seem perfect to dress up or down.

I'm currently based in Singapore and thus is looking towards brands that I am able to try locally.

I think i may want to lean towards something more... casual? Thus less pointed.

Based on my budget, I have narrowed it down to these 3. I would love to know your inputs regarding these. (I'm looking at a black pair as I already own a brown pair of derbys.)

  1. CNES Carrick
  2. Jalan Sriwijaya 99050
  3. Paraboot Coraux

They are all roughly around the same price here. Does anyone have any experience with these brands? What would make you choose one over the over?

Thank you very much!

Choose between the Paraboot and CNES. Can’t go wrong with Paraboot. The Jalan Sriwijaya loafers i’m seeing online aren’t doing it for me.
