In his defense you walk enough stairs you’re going to lose footing at some point lol. Lord knows I have a few times
Booo!!!! this is funny, lets laugh lol.
My first reaction was did he get hurt?
NO...
Then I guffawed, come on this is just fantastic.
Reminds me of my grand parents too much to hysterically laugh but yeah
Allen Edmunds web site is great for the hard to fit foot! Quality doesn't cost, it pays.
Literally every pair of dress shoes I have is Allen Edmonds. My loafers, Cavanaugh and Randolph are my favorites, also a fan of Park Ave (go to court shoe) when I'm not wearing Strand Cap (outstanding in Walnut). I have various others, but those are my multi color go to. The belts are a disappointment. The cedar wood trees are the best in the business.
I don't care for their AE line though, I do have a couple of beaters for the office (Sanford Cap in black and brown).
Now my Higgins Mills brown boots are the most griptastic amazing boots I have, yes even more grippy than my timbs.
6 pairs of 13B, walnut (Carlyle and Park Ave), brown (Carlyle) Burgundy (Grayson). old Key Largo boat shoes and new tan suede Standmoks....Belts are okay, I prefer to match if possible. Not interested in AE clothing. Yes, trees are awesome. Can't do boots...
The Grayson in burgundy is on the list. I have the tan McCalister but I want them in Oxblood.
How do you feel about the Delray? I find them tight in the box but love the LOL. Your a D, I’m E so that may be different.
Delray has never really appealed to me, though it probably would be a good fit with the long toe box, if it came in a B.
I'm a shoe junkie, and probably have a dozed AE pairs. However, after the private equity company bought them I thought the quality of leather fell quite a bit. I grew up with my grandfather and father in the shoe business. My great grandfather worked in a shoe mill.........I know quality shoes.
I've purchased Alden's after the quality fell at AE, but they are really expensive.
I have a new favorite for you to try. I have only purchased two pair to date, and can say they are as well made as the old AE, maybe better, at a fraction of the cost. All hand made but with very few styles. II've purchased two of the chukka boots for the Chicago winter. Ordering the loafers now.
Hand Made Adelante Shoes
I owe you a thanks. I’m making some customizations on the Luca these shoes look amazing.
Hope you enjoy. I think they are very well made, and serve a good cause. Ordered the Luca’s tonight as well, carnal.
