Are these suede loafers too dark for summer?

I would wear those without hesitation. The only suede colour I would not wear in summer is black.

Should be fine. With suede, I prefer lighter shades of brown and tan, myself.

Looks good. I tend to wear brightly colored suede loafers in summer but that's just me.

I would say that is more of a fall suede. However, I just wore some mink suede shoes the other day, so who am I to say?

1) Good looking collection of loafers
2) No, the suede isn't too dark for summer
3) You can replace some of those shoes trees with better trees for less than $13 per set?

maybe a little dark, but suede and loafers are more of a summer thing anyway, so maybe wear them more into evenings? I think it's fine, don't overthink it. Just having nice suede brown loafers is way ahead of what most guys are working with.

I love to pair the dark brown suede with a light cream pant

They are not too dark. I do like tan for the summer, but those work.
