    I'm in the same boat with the same dilemma. We have a couple weeks to decide. Another option is to give the coupon away.

    Just received an email that a new AE store is opening up 10 minutes from my house. Only the second one in Arizona. Grand opening specials. Anyone know what new store grand opening specials are? Thinking of picking up some new Leiden Suede Wingtip Bluchers. Gray Strandmok today. Any...

     Much appreciated. I see you're in NY. I'll be there in December for a quick visit. Last time I was there I picked up some Snuff Strands from Curtis at an AE store on Madison Ave. I'm in Phoenix where we have a whopping ONE Allen Edmonds store.

     I like that. The weave in Dark Chili is on my radar.

     I was unaware of this, thanks for sharing. In fact, AE web site says to use walnut polish on bourbon shoes. In so many words, my wife said the same thing. And I happen to agree. if i didn't have 4 pair of Strands, I would go that route. But like you and my wife say, the 5th Ave bridges...

     Interesting what you say about the maintenance. I wasn't aware of that. But the FA, Mcallister, and Strand don't have burnishing do they? I can see the Lexington does. I've never been a fan of Monk Straps. I have a couple pair of blutchers, milkshake suede Leeds being a favorite. It...

     I'm not a black shoe guy. I have one pair of black Weejuns and an old pair of Johnson Murphy's for when I have to wear a suit. The bourbon Fifth Ave are running near the top for me. I like the Carlyle, but a tad plain with chinos. I have 4 strands so looking to maybe change it up...

    Merry Christmas everyone. While I like the cognac mentioned above, I really want a bourbon shoe, and now that they're on sale, I'm going to pull the trigger. Software engineer manager, 56, in Arizona. Chinos and a button down shirt, sweater in cooler weather. Help me choose. Side note, I have 4...

     All the bourbon have dropped in price at Shoebank from yesterday. That's all I'm really looking at right now, so haven't paid attention to other shoes.

     I like those. Just not sure of the Cognac color, would like to see in person. Hard to do in AZ. One AE store in the valley and I'm not up to fighting mall nuts tomorrow. Thanks, I enjoyed reading your comments. Your "stab in the dark" made me chuckle. Not a brag, but it is probably...

    Merry Christmas Eve everyone. With the new clearance sale announce, I'm thinking of adding to my AE collection. 13 and growing. That said, I'm looking for a bourbon, as I don't currently have that color. I'm tossing between the Strand and the Mcallister. Like the University, but no bourbon, but...

     Natural shell is gorgeous. I'd be up for a Carlyle with natural shell. That would be one beautiful shoe.

     Agree. Those rugged soles are hideous on a balmoral.

     I'd like confirmation on this as well. If true, why not just get a chilli strand, except for the $199 price. I'm still debating on the other GMTO Heritage. I can't quite get a picture of the Bourbon / Snuff suede. I was hoping someone could photoshop one.
