Just noticed that Brooks Brothers has begun labeling the AE shoes as "Allen Edmonds for Brooks Brothers". I say great, but I wonder what prompted them to be more forthcoming about who makes the shoes.

What "prompted them" is the fact that JAB did the exact same thing over a year ago.

it appears the same shoes that are going to be discounted as part of rediscover America sale are also at that price point on Amazon right now (Larchmont, Cronmok, Long Branch, McTavish among them)

Amazon is playing a bit dirty, but in my opinion AE customer service is worth the extra $50. Having said that, maybe my SA is willing to price match :D

I've supported the store in the building where I work quite a bit, so I decided to take advantage of the sale + $50 off on Amazon. Going back for thirds now.

This is ridiculous! I got in touch with AE and the Cronmok in brown 10.5D or 10E won't be in stock until Dec.9! Why even have them on the site!

This is:
1) a huge ass shoe
2) a great gift
My girlfriend has basically refused to even acknowledge my shoe collection now.

1) I'm 6'4", so they look surprisingly proportioned.
2) Most definitely.

I'm wearing them today with a navy suit, and I think I have a new favorite AE color. I love their walnut and saddle browns, but this burnished brown is just gorgeous.

Is the customer service worth an extra $75? Delrays on Amazon for $199 shipped and going for $275 with tax in Chicago.

Favorite AE yet, even with the imperfect creasing.

Does anyone know whether amazon will be dropping the prices on the remainder of their AEs? Right now they only have the items which are 30% off on AE's site as reduced.

In regards to the Neumoras. Do all monk strap shoes have elastic on the top buckle? I like when they are worn with the top unbuckled-- but not sure it would look so great with a buckle just hanging...
