The following styles will be included in the 2 for $300 outlet promotion July 23rd - Aug 5th
Neumora black, brown
Shelton walnut w/ brown saddle (1st and 2nd Q)
LaSalle black
Clifton black, walnut
Winnetka brown (1st Q and 2nd Q)

Anyone knows how's the sizing on the neumora 3 last compared to PA? I'm 9.5E on 5 last after sizing 1 down, width one up. TIA

Any reviews on the golf shoes?

How do you contact the shoe bank? Google returns nothing useful.

He is the only one in the store today so pretty busy but I would try him.

Did you order anything else with the Elgin (2/$300)?  Or just on their own?  If so, how much are they going for?

Shoebank got back to me already this morning. Now, do I want Neumora's and Fairfax's for the pick-2, or pass altogether... decisions...

Picked up a pair of non-AE's today during Nordstrom's Anniversary sale and learned that I might have bought the wrong size in all my prior AE purchases.  Nordstrom previously measured me as a 12D, which has been the size for all my AE purchases (Strands, Park Avenues, Malverns, Delrays).  I've had no complaints regarding my 5 last shoes in this size, with the exception that I cannot walk more than a mile in them without experiencing discomfort on the heel or side.  Today's SA said I'm really an 11EE and that I was previously buying shoes too long for me to get the width I needed.  To be honest, the 11EE shoes fit pretty well so far, but I'm only walking around on carpet.

Anyone else with a wide foot have a similar experience that they drop a full size in length with a EE?  I would have thought the guy was full of it if not for the fact that he knew much more about his products than the typical SA. 

My experience, "D" widths are common (i.e. more inventory).  Some sales people get as close as they can with what they have in stock.  That or the measurements were taken incorrectly.  The Nordstrom guy measured me at 12D also.  I'm an 11C.

When I went to a local AE store to have my foot measured in 5 last, I dropped from an 8.5D to a 7.5E. Like you, the larger of the two was much too narrow and long.
