Reading this I am quite shocked frankly. Why are you guys buying $600+ shoes if the fit is so poor. Am I just spoiled or got lucky with the variety of brands I have (JL, carmina, AE, CJ etc) ? This seems like a terrible agony to go through - including knee / heel pain - seriously? Of course the design is amazing, I do the like the look of AM. I am not trying to be insulting, really trying to understand it. This can't be normal.I agree that AM has some of the worst break in periods out of any brand i own but it shouldn't hurt your knees or soles. Instead, if there is pain, it should be coming from the thickness and stiffness of the leather, i.e. pain from the leather not yet conforming to your foot. Typically i would find some pain in my heel during the first 5-10 wears and because of this, i now make sure i wear new AMs on days where i walk minimally. Allows the shoe to mold to my foot while i sit at my desk all day.
If AMs are giving you pain 30 wears in or worse still after two years then it probably has got to do with an incorrect fit. Perhaps a last that is not suited to your foot? One width too small? half size too short?
They do not fit you and you will not break them in no matter how much or how long you are wearing them. Simply put the last is wrong for your feet.Still breaking them in going on two years now...

It's a good question. I for one never had any heel issues from AM, but I've only had 4 pairs. I did have issues in the toe area due to the thick leather.Reading this I am quite shocked frankly.

Sure, but in order to do that I would have to be pain free at least - maybe I am not tough enough for AMmy break in regime is pretty simple (regardless brand), I walk everywhere (nyc) and all day, it breaks in no more than three days...
I give shoes a max of 2-4 minutes of casually walking in the store or at home on carpet if they don't feel absolutely comfortable I will not buy them...It's a good question.

I will say that, knee pain is definitely not normal or good. That's a huge red flag.

Same here. Absolutely loved my EG Inverness and Asquith, but the 888 last didn't fit my feet. The latter is one of my absolute favorite shoe models, but the last just didn't fit my feet. Same goes with Carmina's Simpson and Rain lasts. There're some absolutely gorgeous shoes made on those lasts, but they just weren't the right fit for me.probably little to do with brand, more how the specific last works, I sold all my EG because they were relative poor fits...
