STYLETHREAD -- LET'S TALK SHOP!

i just want a pair of no-nonsense, comfy loafers i can wear everyday.  they don't need to withstand harsh winters since i live in southern california, and these fit the bill.  granted, i'll wait till they're marked down.

i guess i'm wondering what the quality's like.  are they comfortable?  do they feel like they'll fall apart after a day?  i've never owned shoes from BR so i'm wondering... sorry for the huge pic

any comments would be greatly appreciated!
