    Allen Edmonds Appreciation Thread 2017- News, Pictures, Clothing, accessories, etc.

    Two random thoughts I've had lately: 1) I think the blue shell MacNeil with a natural welt looks amazing. It's just stupid how cool it is. But since I wear exclusively jeans or wool slacks, I'd never wear it. It's like I appreciate it more as a work of art than useful footwear. 2) Fans of the...

     I was born and raised in Charlotte and lived in Huntersville my whole life until college - his house is actually in my old neighborhood. That would be fun to go over and gush over his stash.

     Yeah I ride the silver line out to Tysons a few times a week, and all of the cars are super gross. My soles on the HM have metro smell engrained in them. Whenever I go into downtown D.C. and ride the red line I'm envious.

    Ordered a pair of brown grain Macneils from the seconds sale. At $157 I feel like I stole them. Plan is to use them from suits/business casual in crappy DC weather all the way to with jeans and button downs. Pic of my brown HM on the metro this Friday morning. I wear these things at least...

     Phew, I'm relieved... I think. Post pics when you get them and clean them up some.

     I saw these in store back in December. I'm an 8.5E and was trying on 9E brown grain 2.0s when I saw those in the clearance section. IIRC I didn't like the fit as much as the 2.0s with the proron but as a non-shell owner I was tempted. And those damn things are still there... hmm...

    Trying to break in the Stuttgarts around the apartment before their maiden voyage tomorrow. AE really needs to bring back a full time dress wing tip blucher, these things are great.

    I can't help you with the AE bag, but my girlfriend bought me a Filson 256 last Christmas and I absolutely love it. It's sturdy, protects my things well, and will last a long time. I think it's easily worth the investment, especially knowing Filson will back it for life. My suggestion is to...

    I have the similar styled Delrays, and they have a lot of creasing as well. They fit like a glove, but I think the creasing is just a product of the style - blucher with a super long and flat vamp.

    Religious lurker, infrequent contributor here. Figured I'd contribute with some pics. Today I received a new pair from the seconds flash sale - Walnut Stuttgarts. From what I can tell, these are an international version of the Players 2.0 which are on the 108 last. My Delrays fit like a glove...

    Hey fellas, I've got a question regarding returns... In January I bought a brown Park Ave from a retail location in 8.5E. I have two other AEs - Strand and McAllister - in the same size that I bought three years ago in 2013 that are nice and broken in. These new Park Aves are definitely...

    I have the strange situation where my local AE here in Charlotte, NC is directly next to a BB (they share a wall). I as well am an 8.5E in the 5 last and I went on in to both stores to compare how the BB models fits compared to the standard AE. BB did not have E widths in the store so I tried on...

    I'm trying to decide on my third pair of AE and could use some input. My collection right now (and my only dress shoes) is: 1) Black Strands (firsts) 2) Walnut McAllisters (seconds) I wear each twice a week to work and am looking for a third shoe in brown to throw into the rotation. With the...

    The McGregors are going to be ""dressier" with the sleeker 5 last and smaller brogue strips. With that said, in the real world, I say get the shoe that you like the best or which last fits your foot the best. Virtually no one would be able to tell the difference but yourself and AE addicts like...

    Decided against the BB Kenwood loafer (tried them on, my small feet just look bad in loafers) but am intrigued at getting the BB version of the Strands with their 25% off sale. Does anyone know if they fit a little tighter than the normal Strands because of the Poron footbed? My current Strands...

    Are these shoes made by AE for Brooks Brothers? They're $174, and only $130 after their 25% off discount. I'm usually an E width but for that price, if they are AE firsts, I'd be willing to try and break in a D width 1/2 size up...

    Quick question. What sort of sale, if any, is to be expected for the Dalton boots this holiday season? I'm thinking about buying a pair using one of the online gift card buying websites, which would allow me to snag a pair for roughly $360. I'm in a 9E and don't see any seconds in the color...

    Recommendations for a relaxed fit jean?

    Hey there fellas. I'm in the market for some relaxed fit dark wash jeans. I don't have much of a preference between raw or washed denim. Basically, I just want them to be comfortable, clean and conservative. I'm not looking for baggy fit jeans, just a relaxed fit that will fit my big thighs...

    It's funny you ask this, because I just got back from my first visit to the local Rack a few minutes ago. There should be a mix between first quality and seconds - some pairs had the shoe stamp they put on their second quality shoes. I did see a lot of shoes that had been beat up a little bit...
