Was in the AE shop yesterday looking at the Italian line slip-ons, and the Bristols in particular caught my eye. They're much sleeker than they look in that picture--in fact they look reminiscent of the (dare I say it?) JL Edward (OK, not quite so beautiful, but a similar last-shape). I've never seen them mentioned around here. Anyone own a pair?

this is me, going for a record bump of 3.5 years I just acquired a pair, nib, firsts, for cheap, and I really like them. the plain toeness/styling is not like a typical loafer, and from many angles just look like a plain toe blucher or boot here they are with some blue/grey jeans, last pic is closest to true color thoughts?

I have them in black and brown. They are very comfortable and really look great for a dress casual setting.
