New sleeker Allen-Edmonds

[tonylumpkin]

Has anyone seen these yet? In person? Is that indeed a longer narrower toe on an Allen-Edmonds? Looks quite nice to me. Also is this a completely new last?

Interesting, is this an entirely new last? Any other models?

On the web site they have all the new models. Some are very nice, some a little fashion forward for Allen Edmonds. All in all not bad.

Westwood, Manhattan and Berkley from the new fall line are also on the O last.

still doesn't look all that sleek to me

It looks a lot better than the snub-nosed AE rejects I saw at C21 a couple of weeks ago.

I'm intrigued as to the Seven line.

that's the only pair that looks ok, imo.

The only thing I think needs to be kept in mind is that AE's stock photos in the website are incredibly unflattering - the shoes generally look better in reality versus the photos. A good example is the Westgate (now discontinued) - it was a bland looking whole-cut on the website, but looked much better in person.

I don't like the looks of any of the sevens, and I haven't seen prices yet.....but I saw the 0 last shoes today in the store....VERY NICE, and they fit me pretty well

I wish they would throw down some chelsea boots on that last.

i have the niles, they are nice and sleek, i think even maybe more than this

I do like the look of the upcoming SOHO model. I asked about them at the Boston store and they told me that they would be out in February. They are just like the Park Avenue but are more elongated. I think they have a nice look. They should be retailing for $350.
