ALLEN EDMONDS APPRECIATION THREAD EDITION 2O22

[mreams99]

What does a Bigglesworth run a guy these days? Did you have to pay extra for the eyeballs, or is the below example just someone’s odd eyeball-less spec?

This Bigglesworth is an elf variety (notice the ears), which is a bit more than a standard one. Crispin is an elf name (and also the patron Saint of shoemakers). I insisted on Bigglesworth as his proper last name. We sprung for both eyes since we already have two pirate cats.

A little rain in the desert today, so out come the Strandmoks.

Bartlett never fails (especially now that the lambskin lining color has stopped bleeding onto my socks)

First day of fall?
These seem just right.

I’m thinking of getting the shearling-lined Higgins Mill but skipping the trunk show. We haven’t quite fully recovered from my wife’s recent hospital stay and her missing a month of work afterwards. We also had to finalize another recent expense that had been planned for a couple of months.

He’s still pretty small — about 3-1/2 pounds.

Hope our wife is doing better and I counter your hairless cat with and overly hairy cat.

Only pic I had here at work.

Thank you, cant wait!

I decided that I possess more shoes than I could ever need, yet kept finding one more that I need...
So now I pass by here occasionally for a smile, like a few posts BUT I get out before the bug to buy footwear hits.

Sold my company to my lead employee & now preparing to sell my primary house
-storage for my footwear collection has gone from unlimited to quite limited...

Still celebrating footwear AND appreciating AE every day.

That’s great to hear! I’m excited to hear you moving towards retirement. You’re not heading out to retirement capital #2 are you (Phoenix area)? I just moved this month and there’s a lot of happily retired folks around!

Nice! The pants and shoes work well together.

I don’t care if it is after Labor Day: it is 100 degrees and I’m wearing AE boat shoes and no socks to the office.

By the way, from a few days ago, the correct answer is “formal” means white tie a/k/a “evening dress” if after 6 and a morning suit if earlier in the day.

Semi-formal is black tie a/k/a a dinner jacket or “Tuxedo” for us in the US if after 6 and a stroller if earlier in the day.

But, if I received a wedding invitation in 2022 requesting “formal” attire, I’d be shocked if they meant anything other a suit. But I’d probably call to confirm to be safe.

Think of me as a resource.

 

[Cause Moe]

Formal means black tie if the event is after 6:00 P.M., and white tie if the event is before A.D. 1940.

Or does it mean "for Mal, who is my friend Mallory?"

After an internet search, I have concluded that not many of us, have the proper attire to do either.
