    Thanks for the heads up on that. I'll for sure stay away from Jos.A.B and AE trees, then. My main problem with the Jos.A.B trees were not only that they were too wide, but the edge was too pointed on inside toe part, which left that crease (it's getting a bit better). The Alden trees however...

    Gotta strongly disagree with you on this particular case, while you're right as a rule of thumb, it is definitely not the case for all shoes and all situations. It is especially not true regarding the Neumok, if there was ever a balmoral that was meant for jeans, it is the Neumok. In fact, I'd...

    Wowza. These are beautiful, the whole thing: shoes, socks, pants, color combination. Well done.

    2nd cousins and other family members, I got a question. I mostly have AE shoes and have no idea how Alden shoes fit in general. I'm fairly close to buying the Alden Shell cap toe boot, color #8. Does anyone have any personal experience to whether it runs long or short, wide or narrow. Is it true...

    Here are those Sanford's my dad found at the Thrift store for 30$. They're in pretty damn good condition I think, for 30$ I wouldn't complain either way! They are 11 B

    I encounter this sometimes too. I know it shouldn't, but sometimes this discourages me from buying nice shoes, because, what's the point? Thankfully I get more compliments for my AE's, so that makes it all better and worthwhile. Added to the fact that I buy my shoes for me, of course. PS. My...

    Can I buy these somewhere online? These are very nice, they remind me of the Alden captoe Shell boots, color #8 (Unfortunately I can't afford a 700 dollar pair of boots right now) Ok, scratch that, I just read BootSpell's comment, "Those AE for Wolverine boots look quite nice. I think those...

    Got a question, I'm saving up for the cap toe Shell Cordovan boot, color #8. It might be about three months or so until I'm able to afford it, does this style have any risk of being discontinued any time soon or is it too popular of a style to be discontinued? These are quite honestly the nicest...

    Very nice, I've been thinking about a Shell Chukka from Alden or AE, they both look amazing either way.

    I need some help, I'm looking for a pair of boots that is like ones in the below picture Burgundy (or dark brown, I can't really tell), sleek, lace up, captoe or plaintoe (no chukkas). AE unfortunately doesn't offer this. So if possible, could you suggest me something like this boot? Thanks!

    Personally, I think it's a mess, too much going on. That's just me though, I'd also like to read other thoughts on it.

    They didn't have the Rutledge template for customization, they had the Park Avenue and the Fifth Avenue though, which are just as good of a match for the C&J Hallam pictured above. Here's the thing though, I wish that AE would just come out with a shoe in their line up, because when I customized...

    I second this completely! Not sure if this is really a balmoral, but this is what I would love to see AE take a stab at. This is the Hallam in espresso suede by Crockett & Jones. It's pretty sleek. http://www.crockettandjones.com/Product/Hallam-Espresso#.UKwy-Yc0WSo If AE makes this type of...

    The only difference I see is the stitching that is parallel to the laces have different angles.

    If you were limited to a small-ish shoe collection, then I'd say they don't differ enough to warrant both. The McTavish is slightly more bulky while the McAllister is sleeker. The McTavish is also more casual and maybe a bit more versatile, while the McAllister is slightly more formal but could...
