    Confused on polish ?

    Picked up a pair of Oxblood Strands yesterday. I also have Strands in Walnut, Bourbon and Black. When checking out, I asked the sales rep if I could buy a tube of Oxblood polish and she told me to use BLACK? This got me searching the style forum posts to see if I could validate this response...

    I fit well into a Strand in 9.5D (5-65 last). Can someone tell me if I would fit into the same size in a Broadstreet in the 3 last?

    Strand to Broadstreet for

    I fit nicely into a 9.5 strand in standard width (D) and this is the 5 last. How would that compare to a Broadstreet in the 3 last? Could I simply go 9.5D as well and be OK?

    I can give you my experience with Strand sizing. I just bought a Black and Walnut Calf pair. My feet measured right up to the line of size 10. The sales rep told me that the 5 last is a bit long so he would suggest I go with a Size 9.5. I put them on they felt felt great. Just to be sure I put...

    I have only tried on the Strand and it fit me perfectly in a 9.5 D. So ,rather than risk another style, I purcahsed the black and Walnut Strand in 9.5D. Deal even with the duty into Canada.

    Shoes and cold states (Michigan, Alaska, Canada and so on)

    I live in Canada and the real threat to shoes is SALT. When the icy weather gets here, they dumpy tons of ice on the roads and sidewalk to help melt it. If you walk all day in this salt, it will literally eat your shoes. You will also notice a very heavy "salt stain" on the leather of your...

    Is there an "appropriate age" to consider a slimmer cut suit? I am 53 years old, 5'9" and 160 Lbs, very fit. I see slimmer cuts like the Fitzgerlad and the Milano, but not sure if that is more appropriate for someone younger than my age?

    AE Lasts- how do I know?

    I am pumped to slip into some new AE's. I have never really had any decent footwear. I did not wear garbage, but nothing approaching mid to high end at all. The junk is going out and I am making room for a little quality in my life.

    Allen Edmond's Double Sale, Rediscover America (15%-30%) and Amazon.com (40%) off

    I am totally in the market for a couple pair of AE's but I have never been fit? I can not order on line as I have no idea what size to order? Any way to order and pay but send them my size next week when I can get sized up ? Probably not so I might not be able to get in on this deal.

    AE Lasts- how do I know?

    Thank you both. This did straighten me out. I assumed every model was made in a variety of lasts, so Roger set me straight on that. New Shoes1, I hear ya. No need for me to overcomplicate this. Got it. Thanks
