I am looking to invest in a high-quality pair of leather loafers for work. They can have a slight heel but it is most important to me that they are comfortable. I have slightly wider than average feet, so nothing that tends to fit narrowly.

Vionic. They come in wide widths and have excellent arch support.

I love how comfy Vionics are, but mine don't last very long. YMMV.

Footskins

I haven't owned any in many years, but G.H. Bass used to have quality loafers. Does anyone know if that is still true?

Look at minimalist and barefoot groups on facebook. Probably here too but I haven't looked yet. Also Anya's Reviews. Her site or socials, loads of reviews. The first brand that popped into my mind is Lisbeth Joe but I haven't tried them personally to recommend.

What style of loafer? I own men’s Alden shoes (since I wear orthotics) and they look great and can be resoled. Procure, but I’ve had a few pairs for over 20 years and resoled 2x. If there is a local shoe store near you (small, local place)- they can get your correct size and get you in the best brand for your feet and work appearance needs.

You need to realize you have a real shoe size. Wide is not a size. 5E is a size. https://www.rei.com/assets/pdf/printable-brannock/nb-printable_brannock/live.pdf or you can visit a shoe store and use their Brannock device to measure your foot. Good news is BIFL footwear often comes in exact width sizing.
