Yeah, I had a similar situation with the Oxblood penny loafers and I was surprised, can't believe you had to size up!
I wear an 11.5 in most Nikes, 11 in most dress shoes and 10.5 in the 2 pairs of suede wingtip Lunargrands I own. The 10.5 was too tight on me in the loafers do I had to go with an 11 and that's because I mostly go sockless or wear thin loafer socks with them. Couldn't do any sock with thickness to it.
Yes, I shouldn't have gone a size down from the wing tips...so i'm returning them both (oxbloods and black/volts) and getting the same size as my wingtips. I'd rather have them loose as I can find thicker dress socks if need be.
