Note that the Lombard is on the executive last, which you said was not comfortable for you - also known as Last 2. The Lombards run very narrow. I am also an 11D and had to get rid of my Lombards because they were too narrow for my feet.

What's your suggestion? Should I size up?

And yes the Van Ness is a very nice shoes. I highly recommend it if you are willing to suffer the first few wears due to the last.

Lastly, what ya'lls suggestions: Lombard or Parliment? I already own strands. I am leaning towards Lombard in black as this shoe has more versatility.

I found the Lombard in Burgundy and Parliament in brown in my size (2 for $200). I need a shoe for a business casual setting (Lombard) and a brown shoe for wearing with Navy/Charcoal suits (Parliament). Does this seem like a good deal?

Is the 2 for $200 deal going on only at certain locations?

I think all of the outlet locations, but that is just a best guess.

It does to me. I would get that done.

Does anyone know if AE makes a loafer that is completely plain like the one in the link?

I've been looking for one just like that for a while and can't find anything.

Check out the Muldoon. They're currently clearing them out.

My AE Clifton hurt toward the end of a long day at the side of my feet around the ball of my foot. I realize it may be too narrow, but I love them too much to trade them in. Last is probably different than the Leed's model as they are the same size, 8.5D, but Leed's last (sole) offers more breathing room.

Gosh darn-it

^^ I forgot about the Sanibel and Keene (suede). You might find the Hillsborough and Rush appealing too.

Alright, last chance to ask this question. So, PLEASE, someone try to answer this. Who makes the AE Italian collection shoes? Specifically the Verona loafer, and if possible, the Tresana from the discontinued Seven line. Some help, i beg of you all...

Sorry I can't help but I own the Tresana as well as a J&M "Handmade in Italy" shoe from 4-5 yrs ago. No idea who makes either but they both are the same size and fit me almost exactly the same. I wouldn't be surprised if it was the same mfr.

Did you have to size down for the Tresana, in comparison to the 5 last of the Kenilworth? I'm going try on a pair today, was not sure if I needed to go with my usual size.

I had the same issue with my 10.5D. I just put a Scholl's insole inside (from toe to heel) and they fit perfect now. You will fill out the shoe better

AE experts, I require your assistance. Today I received my first pair of AEs from Endless, but I'm not sure of the fit. I know it's impossible to tell how something fits on someone else's foot from a few photos, but I'm hoping if I give a key few indicators you guys might be able to assist me.

Allen Edmonds SA dropped the bomb on me that they are planning a sale for black Friday. He was unsure of what models or discount to expect as of yet. Any word from other sources out there?

 

[pokey07]

I actually spoke with them too and they said their next sale would be "around Thanksgiving," so Black Friday makes sense. No other info though.
