Can't say with certainty, but if they JUST got there and remain there for more than three weeks or so, they'll probably dip 'em down to $69—but after that, if they don't move, they'll just get 'em outta there pronto. The problem IS, if they've already been there a while and they haven't already reduced 'em (Mine were $79), they may just opt to ship 'em out quick someplace else where they'll be sold at cost or perhaps a slight loss to BCF so they don't keep spending money on inventorying and re-inventorying 'em. You may have to resort to tucking 'em away in a less-viewed spot to stave off the vultures nabbing 'em first. I've only done that ONCE with a pair of AEs I spotted at a BCF—a pair of gorgeous Bleecker Streets that I stashed on a lower shelf where they DON'T keep the boots to take 'em off the top, eye-level rack. I know...“boo...hiss” me.
With that, the Sands' are super-comfy walking shoes. Gonna baby these a bit as they can't be recrafted.
Hello guys, I'm currently looking to purchase a slim sleek dress boot for the coming winter months and I'm curious as to how slim the Daltons are. I recently purchased Jack Erwin Carter boot and sent it back because of the color and how bulky it felt. If not the Daltons are there any other suggestions? I'm looking for a kind of deep ox blood/burgundy color.

Awesome, thanks. I think I'll be purchasing a pair when the annual sale happens.I love my Daltons, and I don't think they are particularly wide boot, but I would not call them sleek. As the leather on the boot naturally stretched, I wish I had a narrower shoe, but that really depends on your foot. I wear a D-width, but don't have a particularly full foot.
That said, I get tons of positive comments about them.
Check out the AE First Avenue Boots
Would you say the fifth avenues are slimmer than the daltons? Thats how it kind of looks to me
Amazingly enough I do not know when the next official sale is- Is the labor day sale over? finally I got the $50 catalogue discount.
Just got my catalog and the Sturgis 2 looks really great - lots of nice stuff in there and photography has gotten better - the first ave boot ave boot in their pictures makes the toe seem more rounded than the real pictures we have seen.
The kudu loafer looks nice - as does the grain Macneil 2.0 ...Franciscan photos look way better also
The next sale on firsts should be coming up soon. When I was talking to my SA in August she told me the dates but I don't recall them at this time. I am looking to make one more purchase during the sale and then I need to hold off for a while.
Quote: that makes sense $50 off expires September 23rd
RDA: September 24-October 13
Hey bud,
I saw these at my BCF today. I don't "need" them, and they fall into the "want" category. They were priced at $89. How long before they drop in price?
