Edward Green Appreciation: Pictures, Info, and Where to Buy

FWIW I was just told yet again that they won’t drop below 50%. That won’t stop me, of course, from trying again later.

Had a friend go yesterday who was told the same thing. Rather than increase discounts to try and clear everything, BB said that they'd take the leftover stock and hold another sale in a few weeks. If I lived in the city I'd do exactly what you're doing just to see if anything changes later today.

I should mention that @AHS was kind enough to swap Dovers with me as we both seemed to settle on the wrong size initially - luckily, we both had the right size for the other person! And then he was very kind to pass on a pair of the Inverness at cost.

While I was there yesterday, I heard the following: at one point, I was told a bulk buyer/reseller had purchased the entire Allen Edmonds inventory before the sale even started - I guess that's why they were mentioned in the ads but nowhere to be found; then I was told they had an offer from a bulk buyer to purchase the rest of the EGs for 50%. Unfortunately, I think they were contemplating a drop on EGs to 80%, but this mystery buyer screwed us all lol; at another point I was told that whatever didn't sell was going back on the website at 50% off, although I wonder if EG would have anything to say about that.

My takeaway is that the bulk buyer is the most likely option, but I'd say there's a sliver of a possibility that the EGs drop to 80 at some point late in the day. Unfortunately, I have a household of sick people so couldn't make it into the city today, but someone should drop in and check it out if in the area.

Are you the bulk buyer?

Are you the bulk buyer?

Ha! Not me. I’m too cheap to put down that kind of money.

Wearing the EG curzon / 82 last today as I walked back and forth from Brooks Brothers.

Are you the bulk buyer?

Ha no, it isn’t me. If so, recently divorced bulk buyer would be more accurate

I assumed it was spoo or some other high-roller

Nice! Was it Shannons yesterday? Either way, good showing! I had on. . . Bean boots

Guys, I take that BB don't stock EGs smaller than UK7? do you happened to see any galways on UK7, preferably on 64 last?

There were no UK7s in EG at the sale that I ever saw. Extremely limited peals in 7.5 and a handful of 7s that aren't moving.

Just picked up a pair of dovers and peal & co shell boots.

I like the 888 last. I don’t see anything wrong with Dovers on the 888 either. Not that different from Dovers on the 606, which is the most common configuration.

888 can look OK, but in larger sizes the toe overwhelms the rest of the shoe. Not quite the way the Deco GGs do, of course, but it is still out of proportion. 606 aims at the same idea, but has less overkill.

 

[thesartorialistbanker]

I am size 11.5 in EG and I have three pairs in last 888. I don’t think the toe overwhelms the rest of the shoe in any of them...

 

[jonathanS]

Personally, I prefer the look of the 890 eg last which is closer to tg73 imo. I feel 888 is very close to 71.



That said, the 888 last doesn’t fit with my feet which is my complaint about it. But that’s a personal preference thing

Nice! I was surprised there was actually a restock. My brother in law passed by at 9am and said there was a line. I went in at 2pm not expecting anything but ended up getting the two pairs.
