Hi, new guy here with some questions. I'm attending a wedding in a couple of months (not in the wedding party), and I need some nice dress shoes. I'm looking at the Allen Edmonds Park Avenue or Fifth Avenue. However, my main question is, how should they feel on your feet?
I ordered three pairs, 7.5E, 8D and 8E. All of them fit my feet, but the pressure points or how it wraps around my feet are very different. With the 7.5E, I can still barely stick my index finger in the back without the laces. With the 8D and 8E, it's easier without the laces tied. The 8D feels a bit cramped compared to the 8E, which feels "airy" inside. On the other hand, the 7.5E feels a bit more snug, where it kind of feels like a glove.
So I'm not really sure how they should feel on my feet. I've only had ill--fitting lace ups and some nice/decent loafers in the past. These would be my first pair of nice shoes and I just found out choosing is really difficult.
Thanks!
