My Cliftons are still my favorite AEs out of my three pairs as well. I have them in Walnut, the last is probably the most comfortable out of all the AEs I've tried.
UNIFORM LA CHILLICOTHE WORK JACKET Drop, going on right now.
Uniform LA's Chillicothe Work Jacket is an elevated take on the classic Detroit Work Jacket. Made of ultra-premium 14-ounce Japanese canvas, it has been meticulously washed and hand distressed to replicate vintage workwear that’s been worn for years, and available in three colors.
This just dropped today. If you missed out on the preorder, there are some sizes left, but they won't be around for long. Check out the remaining stock here
Good luck!.

I have a pair of AE Cambridge Cordovan wingtips that I polished myself for the first time yesterday. I used Renovateur and then applied the Sapphir No. 8 creme polish.
The color and shine looks pretty good. HOWEVER, apparently my buffing with a microfiber cloth ripped off some of the stitching on top of the shoe! (Specifically, the stitching around the broguing on the top of the captoe of the right foot.) Frankly, it doesn't look good...I had to take a scissor to it to trim it back down to size so it isn't too noticeable.
Is this the kind of thing for which AE would replace my shoes? I've only had these for about 5 months, and I don't even wear them too often. I'd hate to relegate a $500 pair of shoes to the scrapheap.
Got my Krause in russet tonight. The right boot has lots of heavy creases behind the toecap on the right boot. If the left did too I could live with it but the difference is too much for me to live with. They are out of stock in 10D russet so no replacements are available. The 10D fit is a bit looser than most 1 and 5 last shoes & boots but not by much, the heel fit was perfect and I have a very narrow heel. They did fit tighter and better than my walnut shell walnut Dalton's overall. Maybe when my tan 9.5D get here on Friday from Freeport there is a chance they will fit after all. But not sure if I could get into them with a midweight wool sock which is what I normally wear with casual boots.
Cold iron after seeing them how would you of polished them. Would you done a quick coat of black waxI would call AE customer service and see what they say, you need to ask them. 1-800-235-2348 They have always been fair and very good in my experience. Good luck. The Saphir creme polish is good for touchups when, and it happens, you dig through the surface of the shell and you need to get the color back in that spot. But a little wax paste polish every once in a great while for polishing is much better than any cream IMO. ===================================== Got my Krause in russet tonight.

I guess this is a good time to ask, are shoe trees good for all leather types? Should I buy them for my Neumoks, which are distressed leather.

Answer to your question is yes, shoe trees are good for all leather types. Neumoks definitely qualify.
Regarding the Jos Bank sale, just keep an eye out. They run sales every weekend - and I mean EVERY weekend! The savings vary, but they often do buy 1 get 2 free on shoe trees. If this deal has expired, there will be others soon enough!
EDIT: Ah, I see someone posted the code for you!
