    Allen Edmonds vs. Alden--Which American Great Do You Prefer?!! OFFICIAL

    I have a few pair of AE that I like. I wanted to try Alden so I looked up a local retailer and stopped by. They had all of one pair of Aldens, that weren't my size, and were not a style I wanted anyway. Personally my uncushioned AE's are some of the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn once...

    Pauper wants to buy used full bespoke suits online

    I'm a little baffled as well, as to me the whole point of a bespoke suit is that it's bespoke... just the way you wanted, to fit you. However grasping at a straw for knowledge, perhaps one assumes that a bespoke suit is made of better stuff than a quality OTR. Perhaps because they don't...

    Allen Edmonds Appreciation Thread - reviews, pictures, sizing, etc...

    Yes, they are splendid. One thing, they will not really look like "boots"... they are really more like a "hi-top" dress shoe. They offer some more support and warmth than dress shoes, but otherwise are a dress shoe.

    I'm 22 years old, my first job out of college pays 135k and I have no idea what to do. Help!

    Allen Edmonds Appreciation Thread - reviews, pictures, sizing, etc...

    I have 3 pair; 5th Ave black, Parliament chili; 5th Street boot, brown. I'm really loving the 5th street... got these at an outlet for $130.... Had a factory done rubber sole overlay, but apparently weren't accepted by whoever ordered them. So comfortable, and very rich brown color.

    I'm 22 years old, my first job out of college pays 135k and I have no idea what to do. Help!

    I will concur with others, as new parents with a combined income just a smidgen less than yours (I'm an engineer, she's a teacher)... what you think should be good money has a way of evaporating. At 22 with that kind of income make a good budget that allows you to enjoy it some but save save...

    New member! and yet another J&M question

    HI everyone. I stumbled across this website while trying to get some info on a recent yard-sale pickup. I've been around Fedora Lounge for a while, and expect there's lots of crossover. Anyway, the reason I'm here.. At a yard sale the other day I noticed a pair of black dress shoes, and...
