THE 2024 ALLEN EDMONDS (AE) APPRECIATION THREAD

I think Olive PA’s would go fine with a navy suit. I think that color of olive is a pretty dark green. I will post different colors with navyish pants

Thanks for your opinion and the pics! Those are some great-looking combinations.

This gives me a lot of food for thought!

Brown Shell Loafing.

Definitely not comfortable, but black MacNeils today for my Halloween costume for work.

I got new laces in the mail, and I was gonna slot in these guys for a wear today… sadly I randomly woke up with a purple colored toe that hurts like crazy (no idea when I stubbed it).

I have actually really started to like the middle width flat laces with boots. I think these are going to be winners.

Wearing the Crocodiles to work. Probably my most comfortable pair as far as crushed toe is concerned.

First solo adventure (to work) in the 911. No stalls, no tickets, no accidents. Just gotta see if I can make it home now, haha.

Ah, the fried egg headlights 😀
Stalling…because hurt toe/crocs, idling issues, or first manual?

First manual. Most of my driving had been highway driving or backroads until week when I started to drive it to work.

I still probably infuriate everyone around me (mostly because they’re all impatient pricks), but I am getting better. I still don’t know the secret of rocketing away from a red light like everyone behind me expects me to do.

Brown shell Bradleys 2day:

You can find Goodyear welted footwear for under $200. This is acceptable quality. A single piece vamp. One piece of leather wraps around your whole foot. Not a bunch of small pieces glued and stitched together. No chance of glue delamination, or stitches bursting open. Full leather lining.

On my feet, they are comfortable. The fit is true to my Brannock size. The rubber sole provides adequate traction for city walking. I wouldn't wear them into combat. Just fine for off the books massages, chasing after the bus, and sitting in a pew for hours of worship.

Happy Halloween!
