Tough to get good loafers here without over paying.

Meermin is good, Bridlen, C&J, Alden for more traditional British / US style.

Carmina, TLB Mallorca, and JM Westin are more Euro style - slimmer and slightly pointier.

Price points from 250-1,000 USD each are worth cost and price point though.

Honestly you need to try a loafer on though as they need to fit well vs a laced shoe and there is variety between brands.

Meermin loafers

Tods and Bally most comfy

Suit supply

If you want “accessible” luxury that’s well made and comfortable, go for either Morjas or Myrqvist.
