I set my mind on a pair of Allen Edmonds a little while ago, unfortunately there's no place local that sells them, or at least firsts. I found a place after some sleuth work that sells factory seconds not to far out-of-the-way. I went down yesterday hoping to find a McAllister or Strand in chestnut, but mainly to get a proper feel for what size I'd need to order online. No luck on the lines, but they did have a Lexington in the chestnut, and for all I can tell it's really similar to the Strand. I can't find it on the AE site and nothing really in Google is helping out.
Anyway, while I was trying out the AE I spotted a pair of Mezlan's that I really like the look of. It was also a second, and with not much hassle the salesman said if I got both he'd give 10% off both.
So I walked away with pair of the AE Lexingtons and Mezlan Lancer for about $330. How'd I do? And can anyone tell me about the Lexingtons?
