Hahah a lot of time when I wear shoes without socks I just tell my friends im too poor to afford socks after spending so much money on shoes.


Lol all too true. I know I can't be the only one who can trump the other half's shoe costs!

I just picked up some cordovan Leeds for a good price. Is there any way to tell if they've been recrafted? Not that it matters much but I'm just curious.
Yeah they put a small hammer symbol on the sole near the heel when they recraft. Similar to the shoe symbol used to identify seconds

I know we are still in the throes of the shell sale, but can anyone comment on what the Rediscover America sale has offered in terms of deals in the past? Is this the 2 for 300 for seconds sale, or are there other discounts? Thanks!
There will be 13 styles included in this sale, some up to 33% off.

It'll be good, and I'm definitely waiting for it. :)

These are en route to me. Will fill a nice gap in my wardrobe

Byron in Chocolate Brown Suede

Those look great!

I'm hoping to get a pair of dark brown suede boots or captoes in the future. Suede has really grown on me!

They are exactly what I'd been wanting for suede. A balmoral shoe, with a punch cap toe, and no medallion.

Hi guys! I'm new to this forum and definitely new to the AE world I'm sure most of you have seen this already but I found this info on the RDA sale this year sorry if it's been posted already. (I believe this is legit, I apologize if it's not) https://www.behance.net/gallery/18379345/Allen-Edmonds-Cataloging-Rediscover-America-Sale-2014


Definitely looks legit. Some great options on the long Branch and the bleeker street, McGregor and gobi look pretty awesome. I think they should have gone with a shortwing blucher but whatever. Thanks for sharing.

Wow that CXL long branch is gorgeous! Makes me more pissed that they did the welt in black. Why did they have to do that in black!!!

Bleecker St. Looks good. What last is that on? 108?

Also, I thought Paul told us the McGregor was going to be a shortwing! That males 3 longwings in the lineup, but no shortwing blucher!

It is extremely disappointing. If that gumlite wasn't so think it might look ok with the black, as any lug sole on the Dalton is going to be black. But thats just to much black and it throws it off. Having a hard time looking past it or I"d be in for one. Franciscan in Bobs Chili might be the go to for me. If I had to pick just one.
