It appears they have more sizes in as well. How do they fit compared to something like AE?


I am a solid 11D in almost every shoe I've ever tried.
I got 11D and just on my right foot, the last kind of tapers down in the toe and ever so slightly pushes on my second-to-last toe. Not painfully, and it's something I think will go away as they break in, but it's there.
If I had it to do over again, I'd also try the 11.5's and see which was better.
I bought these to replace a pair of Indy boots I no longer put to much use, and I'd say in every aspect except for that, they fit about the same—in other words, the toe box is just less roomy than the Indy boot.

Hope it helps. Last sizing questions are always tough because they're so individual.

I was in a BB today and the SA told me seven days of savings starts this week. I was not in my normal store, so did not ask for any details beyond 30% off tailored clothing on Wednesday.

The price today is about the same as corporate pricing when buying 2/$1699. The advantage today is that you only have to purchase a single suit to get the same level of discount.

Do suits & blazers get any cheaper than the 40% off being offered today?

I'm wondering the same thing.

Depends on what you're looking for. You can get non-staple suits for around $400 pretty routinely on clearance when there is a F&F sale.

Emphasis on the "non-staple," and it's not that common. Today's sale is among the best. It's a good day to pull the trigger.

Any word on what comes next in these "six days of giving"?

Yeah, I'm thinking today is a good day to pull the trigger.

I'm thinking about the "Classic" 1818 Blazer in Milano fit. I think this is a new item (at least in the Milano fit)? Any experiences or opinions on this piece?

The day after might be a little better, but I bet the selection today is way better.


Yes, that is usually the trade off. We might get an extra 15-20% off kicker the day after Christmas, but the selection will be what is left. So if you gents really like something at BB, i would get it now...
