    Dark Grey Pinstripe-Almost Charcoal..ok for interview?

    You're good to go. Solid navy, solid dark gray, pinstripe navy and pinstripe dark gray are considered the norm for interviews for many people including myself.

    There's no love for JM shoes here on SF because of quality issues being made in India. That being said, I got their USA made Georgetown II cap toe about couple of months ago. The main reason I got these over the PA was the fit (for my flat feet). There was literally no bowing on these shoes (D...

    Forgot what the SA told me but I think they have been there for about 5 years or so (?). The JL store is close to the AE store. The JL store is on the 2nd level heading towards Nordstrom. NYC is where the other JL store for the USA.

    Check out the John Lobb store there since you're already at the mall. One of the SA there generously spent about an hour of his time to educate me & to let me try out the different shoe lasts for proper fit. Their 7000 last was the best for for me. When budget allows, I will go back for one of...

    I had the squeaking problems with my Larchmont. I took them back to the AE store where I got them. They used some kind of "magic dust" on them & that took care of the squeaks (I didn't see what they did as I was checking out the shoes on display). It appeared to me that the squeaking problems...

    Putting on my Neumora this morning & the rear strap with the buckle broke off on the left shoe when I was buckling it. The strap broke off above where the stitching was at. Took the shoes back to the AE store for a refund. Didn't want to get a replacement pair since the same thing could happen...

    Johnston Murphy Aristocraft, made in USA?

    You're right! My bad!

    Johnston Murphy Aristocraft, made in USA?

    Broke down today & bought myself the Crown Aristocraft line Georgetown II cap toe. It was the fit that got me. Even with my flat feet, I was able to fit the 9.5 D without any bowing on the side. These are 100% Made In USA.

    I have the similar thing going on with my walnut McAllister also. My black McAllister doesn't appear to have those issues on the brogueing though. I wonder if it could be related to certain batches having these issues? These were not show stoppers for me though.

    Johnston Murphy Aristocraft, made in USA?

    If I remember correctly, their balmoral version has a chisel nose versus a round nose on the AE Park Avenue. I still have their Aldrich II cap toe & saddle shoes that are 20+ year old & they were made in the USA.

    Picked-up my Neumora today from the AE store. First time wearing any kind of double monk shoes. The Neumora feels a little more roomy than the Larchmont which is a good thing for me even though they are on the same Last. There's some loose stitching on the throat area of the left shoe near the...

    I have the blue Neumok & wear them with either jeans or Dockers (navy & tan; haven't wore them with gray yet).

    Help Me Define My Job Title

    How about Office Manager since it appears that you will have your hands in areas other than accounting? It's kind of strange that the title wasn't defined beforehand. Congrats on your upcoming graduation.

    I had to size down a half a size on the Kenilworth to a 9.5E from the 10E that I normally wear on the #5 last (McAllister & Neumok). The 10E on the McAllister & Neumok are not a snugged fit as I would prefer but it's not loose where my foot is slipping out of the shoe. Should be getting my brown...

    Went to the local AE store yesterday to pick-up my order for the black Ridgeway & brown Kenilworth. Didn't leave the store with any of the shoes that I ordered. The left shoe on the Kenilworth had a bad ripple on the upper. The upper on right shoe on the Ridgeway was off-center in the back where...

    I saw it today also at the AE store. Since it was new, they also didn't have it in my size on hand. I did tried on the over sized one that they had just to get a rough feel for it. I had them order one in black for me to properly try out. Since it's on the #3 last, hopefully it will fit like the...

    Ordered a BB Navy Fitzgerald cut Blazer but not sure if it is the best for me... help :/

    Their Fitzgerlad suit fits me nicely. A lot better than the slim suits I got from Macy's which are more roomy than the Fitzgerald. Good luck on your job hunt.

    Things That Are Bothering You, Got You All Hibbeldy-Jibbeldy, or just downright pissed, RIGHT NOW!

    BB rant. My suit was suppose to be ready today (almost 3 weeks wait) so I called the BB store about the suit this morning. They told me that they couldn't find the suit in their ready rack & they need to call me back. I got a call back a few minutes later & I was told that they couldn't find...

    Alden Shoe Trees?

    Got a bunch of shoe trees there recently. I was able to cherry picked the best ones they had at one store. At another store, they had some medium size trees packaged as large size.
