^ Don't be ridiculous. Have you ever seen a border collie wearing captoes? He clearly means an Australian shepherd.

If you need black captoes, call Tuttle and order the Cheaneys for $180

tuttlecatalog.com

Go to the Clearance section, then go to shoes, then look for Cheaney Captoe

While I like a bunch of stuff LE does (khakis, knit ties, etc.), after trying a pair of dirty bucks from them over the summer (which I had to return because they were shoddily made and uncomfortable) I have concluded that shoes aren't really their strong suit. The LE shoes you were looking at were probably made in China.

That's what the AS stands for, right?

Depends. Alfred Sargent has made a few models for Lands' End in recent past.

Example: the Gibson and chukkas that made quite a few people stay up all night just last year.
