I like the look of Adrians for its longer vamp making it look more elegant and easy on the eye. I've the Dr Martens Ashland ponyhair monk shoes and yes its leather is so stiff, I hardly wear them (had them since 2012). Like yourself, I'm all for comfort now. Its a real challenge finding that comfortable dress shoes! Glad you found yours!

Another thing to consider is that if you end up wanting to get rid of your loafers (for whatever reason), I feel the Dr. Martens will potentially have better resale value.

Both brands hit for the style. Both are versatile for casual street style. GH Bass are more office casual ready especially in oxblood. However, the plastic look of genuine leather is a telltale sign of a cheap & disposable beater. If you love the loafer look especially for office work, find the model in full grain leather or suede w/ Blake or Goodyear welt they will last yrs longer than either the GS Bass or Dr. Martens, look better and save you $ in the long term. Still it’s good to have a couple of stylish beaters like these in the rotation for weekends of bad weather.
