These are REGAL loafers. I bought them a few years ago and have been storing them because the size didn't fit. I usually wear sneakers in size 26.5 or 26. They were fine for short periods, but my toes would hurt after wearing them for a long time, so I stopped wearing them. The color is not pure black, but a color that looks like it has a little blue mixed in. There is some wear on the heels, but overall, I think there are few scratches. I threw away the original box, so I will send them in a box from another brand.
