    Allen Edmonds Appreciation Thread - reviews, pictures, sizing, etc...

    I've tried doing that before, but it lead to me blank posting 4 times in a row a couple of weeks ago. Basically, the San Marco in Black is $140, the Lombard is shown in Walnut for $140 ( I dont know if thats the only color), Berkshire for $122, Presidio in Black for $122.

    **The Official Shoe Care Thread: Tutorials, Photos, etc.**

    Yes I use the premium shoe polish, so do you suggest I abandon the premium and then use the separate cream and wax steps? I will post pics after the weekend (I am away from the shoes).

    **The Official Shoe Care Thread: Tutorials, Photos, etc.**

    Forgive me, since I know this has already been covered, but my shoes have really not been polishing well. I have been using the leather conditioner from Allen Edmonds, and then following it up with AE polish. My shoes are still looking kind of dull. Am I supposed to be using the leather...

    Like others say, shoe trees and shoe conditioner. Creases are something we cant change-everyone will crease their shoe differently. I've noticed people who are lucky not to really form creases, whereas my creases tend to be large. I think that specific defect is a matter of choice. For...

    Allen Edmonds Appreciation Thread - reviews, pictures, sizing, etc...

    So I actually just checked again today, and my review was posted. I should be clear that what bothered me was more that they screened out my review from the website (happened over 2 months ago). It had the generic response from AE saying they were sorry for my experience and they would contact...

    She did, but I had taken off from work to go there,and figured that a dedicated AE store would have some sort of laceups in my size. Nordstrom always did and their selection is much smaller. I mentioned this to Edward from the Freeport Outlet just to see if my size is rare, and he was shocked...

    Allen Edmonds Appreciation Thread - reviews, pictures, sizing, etc...

    According to the SA it was, which I guess is an excuse of some sorts, but they had no laceups at all. From what Ive heard (circumstantial), AE has a nice amount of customers with wider feet, as a lot of other companies dont make wides.

    Allen Edmonds Appreciation Thread - reviews, pictures, sizing, etc...

    So I dont know if anyone else has had this problem, but I tried to post a review of one of their locations, which was less than positive. Basically, the SA was clueless, and tried stuffing my foot into shoes too small and too narrow. The store also had no lace-ups of any kind in my size (8.5...

    Definitely appreciated-have you contacted AE? Specifically, try mentioning the details about the lack of stitching.

    Allen Edmonds Appreciation Thread - reviews, pictures, sizing, etc...

    FYI there is a review on Zappos that said they are a D width, tried the EEE, it was too wide, and the E was perfect for the Lombard.
  16. blsing

    Allen Edmonds Appreciation Thread - reviews, pictures, sizing, etc...

    I am a EEE, I cant even fit past my toes into a D, so there is ahuge difference in widths. Your foot would probably be sliding around in a EEE.

    Allen Edmonds Appreciation Thread - reviews, pictures, sizing, etc...

    Hmm, if thats the case I would think the Strand may be even worse with the other action on the toe, but thats my opinion. What do I know? Going from a D to a EEE is a big jump, why not try an E? I've seen people post about going to a wider size.

    Allen Edmonds Appreciation Thread - reviews, pictures, sizing, etc...

    Nice choice-attractive shoe, great color I agree on the MacNeil. What proportionally is wrong with the PA/5th Ave? Isnt the Strand a similar look?
  19. blsing

    Allen Edmonds Appreciation Thread - reviews, pictures, sizing, etc...

    I completely agree. However, due to the Nordstrom sale and factory seconds, I havent really spent more than $200 on shoes, so I'd find it hard to make the jump up to the $300 range. The Williams is now my dream shoe, so here's to hoping it gets included in a ridiculous outlet sale.
  20. blsing

    Allen Edmonds Appreciation Thread - reviews, pictures, sizing, etc...

    Agreed, I think the nameplate is a nice idea to recognize its a different line, but doesnt add any value. The reason I liked the Williams is because I dont really like the Macneil, but as you all mentioned, the markup is lot. It gets even higher when you consider that some of the popular...
