    Allen Edmonds Appreciation Thread - reviews, pictures, sizing, etc...

     That's hilarious but I feel you pain as my foot is very similar. I recommend trying a different last and style. Since you can't lace them up you absolutely have to stick with the derby/blucher style. Avoid the balmoral/oxfords like the plague. You still may need wide sizing but a different...

    Paul Sargent (formerly Alfred Sargent) Appreciation Thread

    I just got a pair of the two eyelet Gibson from Sid Mashburn size 8 on the 99 last and it feels great- everywhere except my middle toe. Standing there is no problem, by when I walk and flex my foot my middle toe gets crushed by the end of the shoe. I could never have discerned this from a simple...

    A.P.C. The official thread for APC denim sizing and other questions.

     Yes I recommend you get the 30's. I am also a 32 waist (in general) and I went with the 29's. They have stretched a bit in two weeks but they are still extremely and uncomfortably tight. Maybe they will stretch more after a few months? At this point the 30's seem like they would have been a...

    Best Way to Remove Small Stain on Wool Trousers w/o Dry Clean?

    ***The official Alden thread *** Share enthusiasm, reviews, sizing, advice, and photos.

    Looking to trade my Alden size 9D for a smaller size, 8.5. They are the 920 dark brown calfskin. This was the first pair of decent shoes that I purchased. I have worn them twice a week for 4 months in the office. They are in great shape- they have some small normal creases and wear on the soles...

    Introduce yourself.

    Hi all, New member here, but I've been exploring the forum for over a year by now. I'm living in Atlanta and my recent visits to Sid's has motivated me to get serious about clothing/dress in general. Specifically, I think I've purchased a pair of Alden's that are a half size too big and I need...
