    Allen Edmonds Bayfield boot- any experiences?

    Well, that's not really a problem for me. I was planning to buy the Red Wing GT until I discovered they don't make them in wides. I was worried that the Bayfield would look too "dressy" and that the Wolverine would be a better bet. I'll find out today. I just bought the Redwing Beckman for J...

    Allen Edmonds Bayfield boot- any experiences?

    + 100000000 too bad though, would have been nice to see a stylish boot from America for a change. This. I really wanted to like the bayfields. Just can't do it.

    Allen Edmonds Bayfield boot- any experiences?

    Let me first say that I was really excited about the Bayfields when I first saw them on the web. I own many pairs of AE shoes. Stopped into an AE store to check them out yesterday. They are fugly!!!! Not sleek at all and pretty much look like orthopedic shoes.

    In a pinch need some SF help

    There is a luggage rack above your seat on the regular Amtrak trains. A garment bag should fit. Thanks! Room as in room to hang...or lay flat?

    In a pinch need some SF help

    Dont have time to search the forum right now. Two things: Does the northeast regional from Boston to NYC allow you to bring garment bags onboard and is there anywhere to hang them? I always fly I, never take the train. I have a suit and a blazer in two canvas RL garment bags. For those of...

    Double Breasted Style.

    I don't own that many suits, maybe 20. I would say that half of them are DB. I couldn't really tell you what makes me like them at least as much, if not more, than SB. Often times, I hear people say on the forums: Young guys can't wear DB. I can't understand this. I turned 29 yesterday and...

    What is Allen Edmonds sleekest shoe?

    As if welted Aldens are so much sleeker. Child please! I have a pair of Van Ness' that are very sleek.

    What is Allen Edmonds sleekest shoe?

    Try the Van Ness. It's a sleek oxford that's 270 welted to make it less bulky. I believe it' on sale for 225.00.

    What is the AE Bayfield Boot?

    Am I wrong for wishing that toe box was a bit sleeker? I am highly disappointed with this boot. Not sleek at all. I am going to invest in something else. Perhaps some Aldens. I tend to be an AE fanboy, too. On a side note...the new made in usa loafers AE is doing for RL are AMAZING, imo.

    Any Thoughts on Corneliani Sport Coats?

    Corneliani has a number of different fits, none of which fit me the same way Polo does. The cut for Polo has one of the softest shoulders available OTR, and the jackets have a lightness that is notably absent from many competitors. I imagine it to resemble the old Brooks coats people go nuts...

    recommend a new pair of loafers

    Just a piece of advice, several of the guys on the Trad Forum at AAAC have already purchased the Aurlands and wrote reviews. The general consensus is that these are very rustic loafers pretty much just for hanging around the house. Here's a quote from one of the reviewers: "Okay...I received...

    Allen Edmonds Bayfield boot- any experiences?

    It was $259 at Shoe Bank. Can you post a few pics wearing them with denim.

    Allen Edmonds Bayfield boot- any experiences?

    It was $259 at Shoe Bank. Which makes me laugh because Jos A Bank has them listed at 370.00. Prob like a 150% margin.

    Any Thoughts on Corneliani Sport Coats?

    This whole half/full canvassed thing is quite misleading to new members. In any case, the Corneliani RL models are fused through the fronts, but there is canvassing in the chest, lapels, and shoulders. On the latter point, little threads eventually stick out from the shoulders of my RL jackets...

    Spending $1200 on shoes

    I don't want people telling me "don't spend your money on shoes. You're a lawyer, get a job first". That kind of comment is unwarranted, out of place, irrelevant and ignorant. The reason I said $1200 on the thread title was to give you an idea of the budget I had in mind. Period. Go hijack...

    Anything C&J has to offer How do the lasts fit? I've looked for some to try on in the Boston area; no luck.

    recommend a new pair of loafers

    Monday I will send them a fax (this time in English) and see if I can order a pair. Then I'll get you an update. Cool. Just let me know via pm. Man, those are some sharp loafers. Thanks for the info. Edit: The tan and dark brown (I think I saw a dark brown)...
