Rancourt

I have two pairs of Rancourt beefroll penny loafers; one pair in CXL with their montello mini lug sole and the other in tan calf with leather soles. They are the best replacement I could find for the now discontinued USA-made LLBean beefroll loafers, several pairs which I wore out. I have bought other styles of Rancourt shoes and expect to buy more.

Their customer service is excellent. I discussed my initial purchase with the son of the owner who happened to answer the phone when I called. He arranged for slight tweeking of the volume of one of the shoes. When I have since called to place an order the sales person has made reference to the modification and asked if I wanted it on the pair I was ordering.

I have no connection with the company beyond that of a highly satisfied customer.

I hope this is helpful.

Regards,
Gurdon
