    I've eyeing the Morjas Brown Suede Ivy Loafer. Just haven't pulled the trigger. For that price point there's so many options so I've just been unsure what to grab.

    Sadly Swedish brands are almost all scams. They take Spanish and Portuguese shoes and 2x the price. These are the exact same as Skolyx Belgians that are $160.

    This is weird. Not the shoes, but the whole brand/naming stuff. First I thought they were Belgian made, but apparantly it is a common sub-genre of Loafers. But what is weird, as I'm from Belgium, that the mode naming is mostly French influenced. So they are mocassin here. Belgian loafer is quite dumb, as it would not make sense in Belgium. I would just say these are granny shoes. If you go to the average big-size ladies shoe brand from Spain, and buy there directly, you get this for like 100€ max. Same factory probably. The difference is that you might see 1cm more of your foot instep. Another benefit is that the variety of colours and heel heights is bigger. You can even go to 8cm heels if you like. Heeled mocassins.
    And if Morjas would be a quality brand, they would have a quality website. There is some essential stuff missing:
    - no address, no phone number
    - no info on material sourcing, production, dyeing process, environmental inpact other than very generic stuff on brand level, not per item.
    You may try my Andy Pola's, but the thing is as woman I have bigger feet than you, and they don't make shoes is regular female sizing....
