Anyone has K25? How does it look on 5’9” guy? Debating between K25 vs K28
I’m 5’8 and I have both (k28 sellier Gold & k25 sellier Blue Indigo). Out of the two, I use the K28 much more during the day. However, at night I use the K25 more. This has more to do with space as I usually carry more during the day. With a 105 cm strap, both will hang perfectly when I use it as a crossbody. You really can’t go wrong with either. In pictures, the K25 looks more proportional to my body size and type. I hope this helps. Good luck.
 
I am not a guy but have a question regarding Hermeś men’s shoes. I purchased Gregoire Loafer for my son for Christmas last year. My son is very thoughtful and usually wears/uses things I gift him when he sees me so I can see that he appreciates and uses them. I haven’t seen him wearing Gregoire Loafer yet, and I am wondering if they are absolutely terribly uncomfortable but he is too shy to tell me so! Does anyone here own Gregoire Loafer? I would appreciate any thoughts, feedback, suggestions (how to break them in, etc.) or recommendations for alternatives. Thank you in advance!

My DH has tried on other models of H loafer and finds them clunky (which is the style) and heavy (which is his objection and reason why he hasn’t bought any). He does own chypres, H boots, and other shoes, and wouldn’t wear them if he has to walk a lot. But everyone is different. So I would simply ask your son bc the Hermes last may not be the best fit for his foot, or it could be some entirely different reason (like he loves them and is saving them for a special occasion lol)

My DH has found that if they are too heavy or the balance feels wrong, break in may not change that. There are as many other options in as many price, style, weight, function, type category as there are shoes. DH personally finds Edward Green loafers (I believe the 202 last specifically) to be among the most comfy, but getting the exact right last (model), size, width, type matters. In comparison to Edward Green, he finds H shoes to run large). If a man is picky about fit, I find that they tend to go to a brand that specializes in that type of thing. JMO though, and good luck :smile:

Your son of course has a very considerate and generous parent to think of getting him such gorgeous shoes
 
Thank you and it is blue sapphire/ blue Izmir 45. Lovely bag it is :blush:

I really like your color!! I also got one, but in gold/orange. I really like it as it is so practical and esay to go with. Now I think of it, given the retail price, it is so worth it as it is in full leather🥰🥰Looking at the new style bags, steeple tote, it is in canvas and much expensive.

Indeed it is a practical bag with an interesting pop of color (like your orange inside classic gold), plus you get 2 looks (reversible) for the price of one bag ☺️
