I thought I'd mention something I ran across on eBay. Nice horse-bit loafers, new, in most sizes (medium widths I think) and leather in mid-brown or black and suede in brown or black. I don't know how to paste in the link or I would, but go to dress shoes, size 10, any condition, Allen-Edmonds, "See additional Buy It Now items." Ebayer "chelican01" whose shop is "vicarashoes." The shoes are new and virtually identical to the A-E Bruzzano or Alden Cape Cod Horse Bit Loafer (which appear to be the same Italian-made shoe) and sell for a "buy it now" price of $98. These shoes generally have a regular price of somewhere around $235.
