Allen Edmonds Appreciation Thread 2020 - News, Pictures, Clothing, Accessories, etc.

[BFT9000]

Welcome everyone to the 2020 Allen Edmonds Appreciation Thread!

Over the past ten years, StyleForum’s Allen Edmonds Appreciation Thread has become one of the largest, most popular online communities for fans of fine American-made, Goodyear welted footwear. Each year, the AEAT nets thousands of pages, tens of thousands of unique posts, and millions of unique views.

We’re here to share pictures, gloat over new purchases, give questionably helpful advice, and ask/answer any questions about the brand and its products.

Thread rules double as shoe care rules:

• keep it clean,
• keep it polished,
• and keep it mostly on the shoes.

This thread is pretty open when it comes to off-topic discussion but please don’t derail the thread. When in doubt, place off-topic pictures and pictures of non-AE shoes in spoiler tags with a descriptive title.

The AEAT at its core is a celebration of shoe fanatics from around the nation. To get us started in this new decade of shoe appreciation here are some incredible pictures posted by our members in 2019:

Are they not!? I had them under your name, but I may be mistaken..

Looks like an audog pic to me.

 

[BFT9000]

Looks like an audog pic to me.

Nope, they're yours. Nice pic!

 

[jet-stream]

Since our thread captain (@BFT9000 ) omitted himself from the alphabetical listing of major posters on the thread, I thought I would provide an entry on his behalf.

If you have ever wondered what all the Strands look like, wonder no more:

Aaaaand this is why we call him the Strand King (note the photo is outdated and is missing several additional Strands from this year).

 

[instigateur]

Nope, they're yours. Nice pic!

Ah yes, the skeet shoot. Dang that is a nice pic.

I must have been channeling @audog

Not mine, I don't have a bedpost or newel post like that, nice boots none the less.

If he was going to post one of mine, should be a pair of Caen's.
