So... Anyone experienced their shoes getting uncomfortably tight in the summer months?

I noticed this in my left foot for the past few weeks. Since its unilateral I think I may have an actual issue.

I purchased my first brand-new pair of AE's during the Merlot sale. After a sizing snafu, and exchanging them at the store here in MN, the new pair of McAllisters arrived while I was on vacation. I was thoroughly excited to wear them out for my anniversary dinner tonight, when I found this on the tongue....



There were some smaller imperfections on the welt, and a couple of very small scuffs which I'd decided to live with, but not this. Looks like I'll have to find another excuse to take my wife to a nice place for dinner in the near future...
I don't mean to sound harsh here, but won't that be covered when you have the shoe on? That would be like sending a shoe back for having a stain on the insole.

I knew the Newberg was gonna bomb the minute they announced it. Terrible execution - the pics are not good at all, so making it online only couldn't possibly help. Then you release it far before summer, and discontinue it when summer hits? Makes no sense.

@mreams99 Lucca yes, rogue, no.

Not wearing AEs, but wanted to post my Meermin Mallorca Linea Meastro wingtips. The color says cogniac, but it looks an awful lot like chili. Very high quality shoes, hand welted.

Yeah, these are my only shell and you'd probably have to pry them off my cold dead feet.

I picked up my Hopkinsons from Dabondo as well... for less than $100 shipped and basically brand new with no flaws.

How much ankle bowing is considered acceptable? Anything I can do to fix the problem? I really don't want to return the shoes.

No, but that's because it's always warm where I live.

I've come to realize that I much prefer single leather soles to double. When it comes time to recraft my Leeds, I'm going with the single.

I also got bashed yesterday by a few friends for posting this pic of my Park Aves with the light blue socks. Apparently that's a no no with fashion. I thought it looked fine, but many people have stated this is not proper. Still learning about socks and fashion..
