Reply to comment by Muncie4 in Business Casual Loafers/Slip-ons for walking 5+Miles/day in an office... by JetVinny

You can give advice and not be pretentious about it. Loafers and slip ons are in the same category of shoes so why does OP need to take a stance on which they need? 99% of people will need to look up the difference between the two to actually know.

>most makers consider anything A to D to be normal and E and up to be "wide".

So wide is a size?

Wide as a size is a slippery slope. There is no definitive wide, each maker has their own metric. The above is a generalization applicable to many but not all. Brannock is the Lord and we need to preach that with BIFL shoes as buying a 12AA is far superior than just selecting 12 and going about your day if you are a 12AA person. Most BIFL shoes come with Brannock sizing.
