Kicked off the week with a birthday bang. Started the morning in burgundy MacNeil (not pictured due to being late). Ended the day in bourbon Higgins Mill, out for burritos with the fam. Hope you all have a great week!

I'd say I have about 20 uses out of these Allen Edmonds Stands and I'm noticing creases on the inner side of the shoes...Mostly the left shoe. Is this somewhat common/uncommon? Maybe one foot is wider than the other? Thoughts?? Anyways...I spent time at the AE store trying out different sizes and these were the best fit. Though at first these shoes were very uncomfortable, however after the 10th time wearing them, they are becoming more and more comfortable.

It is all about the shape of your foot vs. the shape of the last. I have very flat pronating feet. My foot pushes down on the arch area of all my shoes. Some lasts more than others. I do that on the 73 last in just 2 wears. Nothing to worry about and not much you can do unless you spend $3500 on a bespoke shoe. They can actually put arch counters to stop or limit that.

Taking out the Jefferson today. Decided on burgundy socks because they have some blue. Unfortunately you cannot see the blue at all. Rule breaking today if it still is a rule.

A passer-by PSA for big footed gentlemen.
like @munchau

Try Kane11 socks. If you wear a size 15, order size 15 socks. NOT socks that "fit 12-15"

Whatever size you wear, you'll buy that size. It is about time.

(they have up to maybe size 17 !)

Any chance you’re going back and can browse for your large footed friend?

Going on vacation, then a busy few months ahead for me. Wisconsin maybe by Fall.

Going for a subdued look on a warm hectic Tuesday.

Navy nailhead suit today and the (kinda ruff) shell Strands get the call . . .

Post-birthday malaise calls for more bourbon, MacNeil.

Rule or not, that’s a nice looking pair of trousers. Where did you find those?

A moment of silence for what I noticed on my snuff Neumoks this morning. The material gave way in the broughing (sp?) area. I wonder if them being unlined increases the risk of that.

The Neumok is one those maddening AE mishmashes: an oxford with a split welt and a sole edge too light for anything too dressy. Still, it has filled a hole (no pun intended) in the rotation, especially in the spring / summer. And they are super comfortable.

I suppose some would use this as an excuse to buy a certain polo suede loafer from a certain Northampton manufacturer but I’m made of sterner stuff. I think. Maybe.

Happy Tuesday forum pals. Bourbon Leeds on a hazy LA morning.
